Kinto Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 Hello gentlemen, my first post on this forum.I have just received this rather nice looking Krasnaya Zvezda, I'm thinking it is mid 1944 based on the table in Michael Riley's excellent overview of the Red Star.The enamel has a few surface scratches but is generally pretty good.

Kinto Posted May 16, 2009 Author Share Posted May 16, 2009 659 503. What can I do within the 70kb size constraints Rick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Darrell Posted May 16, 2009 Share Posted May 16, 2009 1944 would be accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 "What can I do within the 70kb size constraints/"Epson scanner-- 35.7kb =25.3kb =Still 9kb left over....No muss, no fuss, no 185 resizing steps and no enormous wasted kilobytes size on whatever the heck is devoured to no use by all other equipment. Nothing beats an Epson. Nothing. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kinto Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 Horses for courses Rick, I'd have to say there's not much better than my Nikon but as a professional photographer I would say that I can trim unwanted excess in Lightroom or Photoshop and vary my resolution but sadly to no avail it seems.

speedytop Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 (edited) Hi,"What can I do within the 70kb size constraints?"It is not only a special scanner, because you need the picture change also for photos.It is not an Epson, it is a Canon:And this is a reduced photo:Used 67.12kb, still 3kb left over from 70kb....Uwe Edited May 17, 2009 by speedytop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Research Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Ah, but aside from the expense and 384 steps to get what I get with ONE... cameras require talent. I have none whatsoever. Nobody's winning prizes or getting paid for what we post-- all that matters is being able to see what's there. Epson just works in one go for anything we need here online.

Kinto Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 (edited) Is using a scanner the only option? I have a Canoscan I could set up but quite honestly the idea of scanning 3D metal objects on glass is a bit of a worry to be honest. Whilst comparisons are odious I would say that I manage to post small 50kb size images on another phaleristic site with no problems of size..
