about this image quality stuff. if you are looking for high quality 
images on 256 color machines, then the idea of optimizingt the pallete 
in PSP4 is great, but if you do, just save as a gif. jpg compression 
degrades the image every time you open and save it no matter what 
compression you do. gifs never have this problem, but are restricted to 
256 colors. and bitmaps are the best, but too damn big. i recommend gifs 
with optimized palettes. when you scan your pictures, unless your 
looking to increase the size, a standard 100dpi scan is more than 
sufficient cuz most screens display at 72 or 96 dpi. it just makes the 
picture bigger, thats all. good luck! - Cyanide_7
