Ohhh, I have experience with this! I usually do it manually in Photoshop. I don't really know how to give advice on it, though; I just put the images together in two layers and then move them and erase/blend them until they fit. It helps if you take three scans - the first half, the second half, and a middle that covers a little of both.

But, if you want, you can send me the scans and I'll put them together for you. :)

Thank you so much for offering to help, but it's all sorted now, like you said, 2 scans aren't really enough, but all is well :dance:

I tried to do it in Gimp and was almost successful, but the tonal differences of the scans were too much for me :ashamed:

Oh, the three scans would help, but my scanner is landscape rather than portrait so only can take the two scans :( There is a good overlap though :)

Would you have a look at the two bits and see if you think they are workable? Only if you don't mind, I know it's a lot to ask and not the most fun thing in the world :hug:

My new drawing is all finished but it is A3 and no matter what I do, I can't get it to stitch together well :( I'm not good at these things :ashamed: Normally I use MS ICE and it stitches for me, but it won't recognise the scans this time for some reason. Ariel, if your reading, I did it your way, but I can't fix it :crying:

So, blah blah, sorry .... I took a photo and those skills are just as crap as my scanning skills are :tears:

Any help would be gratefully received :love:

the solution is simple - you have to scan in more parts :) MS ICE used to drive me insane until i figured that it's because i need more parts of the drawing overlapping - meaning more scans. you can scan in 3-4 parts instead of just 2, it won't give you any problems anymore :D:D
