Hi CW,
Thanks very much for helping with these.  They are now up.
In the case of Narf and his RAW versions I would call what you have done as an (Edit) and not a different version which would be from a new source.
If it's not a Raw scan then I would call it a (re-edit) such as what you did with G-I in Battle v1 006.
Narf has several raw versions on the site so feel free to continue.

Question - what application are you using to do your edits on these?
Just curious.

Thanks for the comments. In future I will note any RAW's I work on as Edited. I have edited most raw files I have downloaded from DCM however for some reason never thought to upload the edited versions until today. As I find them I will upload.

For most cropping and page rotating I use MS Office Picture Manager Ver. 14. For bulk changes of multiple jpg files (resize resolution, color adjustments and other cosmetic changes) I use  XnView. It can also do bulk rotation and cropping providing all the jpg's selected have the same issue (if not the results are hit and miss). It's a great freeware tool.

All the best.

Thanks CW.
Interesting, I've not heard of those apps.  Irfanview does a lot of the same things and is free as well.

Thanks again for the edits,

Hello Yoc

I have not heard of Irfanview so will download and see if it is better than XnView. Thanks for the tip.

I noticed that the A-1 category under ME only has a few of issues included. I realize that most issues are already listed in the other ME category they cross over with. So far DCM actually has 122 of the 139 possible issues in the series located throughout the ME catagory.

I have copied applicable issues into an A-1 directory for ease of review and can easily upload all. Is there any value in doing so? All will be titled similar to this: A-1 Comics 080 (Ghost Rider 012).cbz.

Let me know.

Hi CW,
Thanks for you offer but I don't think we need them all on the site twice.  It is an almost unique problem.
Give Irvanfiew a look.  It's one of my desert island apps along with Total Commander.

No Problem. Should you ever want to connect the comics already on DCM to the A-1 directory, let me know and I can provide a list to make things easier.
