Okay, ATM, I have an HP All-In-One Scanner.
The problem? Scans are too sharp. Even if I blur in photoshop, they're still not good enough for me to work with.
(both in color for sake of comparison)
My scan: http://i35.tinypic.com/skujyd.jpg
I want: http://i36.tinypic.com/30su6i1.jpg
Compare softness. I want like that last one scan. ;~;
What's a good scanner that can give me that desired softness, and doesn't scan as sharply as my scanner? ^^; I'm thinking Canon, but I'm hoping I don't have to go past the 150~ range because I'm kinda poor. >_< And I've never used a Canon scanner, so I'm not sure of quality.
Thanks a lot in advance.
P.S: If you think it's possible for me to scan my images like I want them to with my current scanner, please tell me how. ^^; I've tried to download 20 million scanning programs, and not one of them let me lower the sharpness like I desire. >_< If you can recommend any... again, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks a lot!
EDIT: I was looking online and came upon these two scanners I might be interested in buying: Click Click - Thoughts?
