get out a bottle of windex and a roll of paper towels and go at it. Make sure you get the pages nice and wet.

redraw line, recolor black parts, redraw shadow parts..

take a raw, look at a clean and try to do the same, andtry after try it'll look better (sorry but there no magical way (except maybe in photoshop CS2 :p))

I'd say use google and seek a good tutorial. Almost nobody will give you a proper answer here. I can? Yes I can. But I'm too lazy to do it. Just use google ^_^

[Moridin]

there are plenty of tutorials around

a couple of pretty good ones:

http://www.questie.com/manga/ScanEditGuide/editing.htm
http://possible-soup.net/join/editing/tutorial1.html

the basic steps are to make sure your page is in a greyscale mode, get your page straight so it doesn;t angle to one way, use levels to get your colours from the many greys to something closer to black and white. For a good quality scan redrawing in the lines that aren't clear is a good idea, for LQ scans people aren;t really going to notice but it does make things look a lot nicer. Then on a new layer you'll want to begin filling in the text boxes white so that you can add your new text over the top, find a nice font and your text.

Before you finish a page just take a quick look over it and see if there's anything that needs touching up.

There is no such thing as Paint Shop (Standard). It's all "Paint Shop Pro ___" ... (I use Paint Shop Pro to clean and textset, myself).

Maybe you have PSP CS (Paint Shop Pro Creative Suite)?

Edit: Are you talking about Microsoft Paint? If so, MS Paint and PSP have nothing in common with each other.

[bebong]

okay. I'll try to submit one. I scanlated the chapter 283 but no words because I didn't understand. Maybe I'll ask Nihongaeri to use his translations. Anyone know where to get comic fonts??

[Feathers!]

Just Scan the raws and drop em off somewhere, the different groups will take care of the rest.

[bebong]

bleah, now the uploading already takes hours in rapid share and I dunno how to use you send it because you have to send it to somebody else. -_-"
