Title: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on April 07, 2010, 11:10:33 PM
I put Black Diamond Western #34 35 on the FTP site.
JVJ's comics, my scans, LoftyPilot's edits.

Also could someone rename Black Diamond #13 to Black Diamond Western #13 so it sorts in order.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on April 08, 2010, 01:50:15 PM
Now up!
Fixed #13 listing as well.

Thanks to all for getting these scans made!

I see in browsing around that Loftypilot's edits of my scans of JVJ's copies of Black Diamond Western #9 and 12 never made it up here. That has now been corrected.  

Also uploaded an issue of Fight -- NMS -- don't know whose.

On the FTP, Yoc.

Was that one of your scans?

Yoc, you must be working too hard.  You certainly know that NMS means "Not My Scan". Right?

Black Diamond Western #11 now available on site.  It's a JVJon production -- that's right, this time you have to settle for my edits, not Lofty's.

This one is c2c.  There is an incomplete scan on site that I presume can be removed.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on May 29, 2010, 10:53:14 PM

Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on June 04, 2010, 05:41:23 PM
Thanks Jon!
As uploader for you to get credit we've got to use your name as the 'author.'
But don't worry, I added in the description area that Lofty did the edit.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on June 06, 2010, 06:01:10 PM
I thought I put Jon / Lofty in the author spot -- are you telling me I can't use anything but my log in name for it to work?
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on June 07, 2010, 02:02:55 PM
Hi Jon,
As there is no actual DCM member with the name Jon-Lofty it can confuse the software.  Login names are needed in the author listing.

Any credits for the creation of the scans can be included in the description of the scan or in the actual file name as it appears on your HD.  I added in full credits on the books in question.

I hope that helps,
-Yoc
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on June 07, 2010, 11:57:17 PM
Black Diamond Western #50 53 54 all JVJ Jon Loftypilot productions uploaded to FTP.  Latter two may be replacements for tiny scan and digital camera scan --they were at GAC didn't check here.

Thanks for the explanation on name Yoc,  I may have confused the software over at GAC completely then as it's how I've named them there, of course that was moving from FTP not direct uploading o maybe it's ok.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on June 08, 2010, 12:52:14 PM
Hi Jon,
NP, it wouldn't crash the system, only confuse the internal statistic Jon.

I'm adding your latest now.

c2c uploads of Wings 7 16 18 19 22 25 39 42 43 67 73 83 84.  In each case fiche pages or missing pages have been added from JVJ's comics. Between two to eight pages are affected per issue The scans are otherwise identical to those already in place.

I've also added a file with just the missing pages if you think that will save on bandwidth.

Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on June 24, 2010, 05:03:21 PM
HI Jon,
WOW, now that's a BIG update!!
And great thinking on the 'fills only' file...  but I don't see it on the FTP.
I'll add the full files but I think your fills only idea would be a good one to have as well.

Great job!
:)
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on June 25, 2010, 05:18:22 PM
I've reupped Wings #42 which was apparently a damaged .rar file and Wings #43 which had a duplicated page 38a.

I also upped the fills only file.  Guess I only FTPed that one to GAC.  I get lost sometimes when I FTP to GAC DCM and BBBrown.  I wish there was an FTP program that would send once to multiple places like you can to wit email.

Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on June 26, 2010, 12:12:30 PM
Thanks Jon!
All are now up.

But sadly I notice Wings 39 has a duplicate page. I'm guessing both it and the FILLS only file are missing the first letters page (Wings_Comics_no.39_194311_pg34).

-Yoc
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on June 26, 2010, 12:15:31 PM

Post by: Yoc on September 12, 2010, 05:03:53 PM
Jon,
Your PL19 is originally from JVJ if you wanted to add that note on GAC
We've had these scans for a long time while I've worked on 'fixing' them for the next Phantom Lady Archives which is always 'in production'.

If npro has a better copy of PL19 to share I hope she will do so.  None of the copies I've seen scanned was in register.

Both Phantom Lady 19 and 21 scans were made by JVJ from books very generously supplied by Bud Plant for the Phantom Lady Archives.  They supplied raw scans PL 19-21.  Bud and Jim have been wonderfully generous with their time and books on the project.  Of course they aren't the only ones to be thanks for their help and our Acknowledgements page will be quite large when it finally is released.

So true Darkmark, it has been great to see all the books that have arrived in just the past few months. It's truly amazing.
I too thank you gentle folks for your up's, sorry if I've missed a few of you.

In fact I will be up'ing a new book in the next day or so myself.

Not downloaded these but noticed some of them appear out of order in Comic Preview BUT this doesn't mean they are out of order in CDisplay etc.

I gave up for time being dealing with cbr/rar files since it doesn't handle contents like zip files etc. So check real file if comic viewer shows it out of sync
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on November 09, 2010, 02:14:16 PM

Can you confirm these are out of order inside the file?
Jon/Lofty are both old hands at this and never had a problem before this with file names, etc.

Crack 42 would have been an HP edit not Lofty, but he's equally old hand.  In any case I just DLed the file as it is here and the scanne page are in order.  I have no idea why a random page shows up on the DL page.

More information!

I've examined the ZIP file more closely, and determined that the actual file order inside the ZIP is in fact the order that Preview is displaying them in; i.e. the files in the ZIP aren't stored in ascending order of the file name. However, most programs that open/display ZIP files will display them in order of the name, not "natural" order.

If it's possible for the Preview code to do an implicit sort by filename when it opens the zip file to display the images (and display the first available image), this would fix the issue.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on November 10, 2010, 05:31:54 PM
I'm sure Capt will iron out the bugs eventually but until then lets all make an extra effort to have file names that use page numbers with double digit numbers and display in both CDisplay and the DCM Preview in the correct order.  And please have a cover as your first image whenever possible.

-Yoc
Yoc,

My explanation probably wasn't very clear, I'll try to restate it. The files inside the ZIP file for Crack 42 are named appropriately (double digit page numbers, etc.), and if you extract them to a folder, and sort them in order of the file name, the pages are in the correct order. However, when the ZIP file was created, the files were apparently added in non-sequential order. Capt DJ's Preview program appears to be pulling the files out of the ZIP file in the "natural" file order, instead of in order of the file name. CDisplay is probably doing a "sort by name" function when it opens the .cbr/cbz file so they are displayed in the intended order.

I hope this makes more sense.

  - Snard
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on November 10, 2010, 05:41:33 PM
Ah, thanks Snard.  I'm sure that will help CaptDJ

Funny though, if PKZip (or whatever) is doing this I'd had expected a lot more uploads with the same problem.
I use WinRar for everything but haven't uploaded anything since the preview function was added.

-Yoc
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Geo (RIP) on November 10, 2010, 09:22:17 PM
Yoc, if you can get to them before I do, they both are in my folder on the ftp awaiting uploading, (in the correct page order, I checked them both out).

Geo
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Captain DJ on November 11, 2010, 02:16:22 AM
Thanks Geo for explaining that.

This is a known issue and one been working to fix, thought I had fixed it BUT it still occurs with some comics.

Basically whenever you add a file to a zip/rar file it gets given an index number. So first file added is index id 0, next file 1 etc.

I think I might have fixed this for .cbr/rar files but seems need to do some more work with zip/cbz files.  My function basically opens the cbz/cbr file, finds index numbers then sorts them by filename.... but I'm guessing still few bugs in code.

Also reason cover thumbnail random page is because the extract thumbnail script that runs in background also based on my comic preview code for opening zip/rar files so it see's that page as first page so extracts it, resizes it and puts it in thumbnail folder.

The thumbnail extractor runs twice an hour and only does comics it not seen before ie new ones.

Chances are I will need to rerun the whole thumbnail extractor again and get it to pick up images that it missed before. So it will stay that way until I manually rerun the script once I have spoken to other staff. Other option was to manually make staff flag covers not displaying right and manually upload them but script doesn't do that yet and also they busy enough so better to automate it if possible.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on November 11, 2010, 08:55:29 AM
Finding a way to flag a title as 'new' again might be the fast answer and let the auto add handle it after that.

Well I can do that easily but its more an issue of how to put that into sites code.

Might be just simpler to run script again since takes 1 night to do them all. Then mean's no one else needs to do anything. Will still be comics that don't have covers / wrong cover but shouldn't be tooo many so we can edit them natually when got edit/add/delete function up.

D'oh Where's the forehead smack smiley? I knew it was Prize. And I think I even upped it myself to the wrong section over at GAC.  I'd better go check.

I hope to get the last Jet Aces next time from Jim.  Not sure why it wasn't sent this time.

Enjoyed issue #52 of "Boy Comics" and I'm sure I'll get around to the Charlton issue of Wyatt Earp, since I do have a certain nostalgic appreciation for comics based on early television shows which I remember.

The Dell Wyatt Earp was based on the TV show.  The Charlton and Atlas/Marvel were not though of course it's all the same actual (fictionalized) person.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: jfglade on June 24, 2011, 07:55:38 PM
 Without the television show, I doubt any of the Wyatt Earp books would have been printed, much like the syndicated British television series, "The Adventures of Robin Hood," starring Richard Greene which ran from 1955 to 1960 gave birth to books featuring Robin Hood from Charlton, Quality, Magazine Enterprises, and giveaway books from Browns Shoe Company. The Quality books were basically based on the television show, but the others weren't. Being legendary, Robin Hood was a public domain character who could be adapted a lot of different ways, much like Wyatt Earp had been presented as the stuff of western myths for so many decades he was fair game to be fictionalized for television, movies, and comic books.

 I like the Charlton issues of Wyatt Earp simply because I grew up in a small town and was familiar with the comics before the area finally had a television station that included us in its broadcast range. I did see the final year of Wyatt Earp, enjoyed its version of the Gunfight near the O.K. Corral, and was sorry to see the program leave the air, but I never cared much for the Dell books despite their photo covers and obvious licensing deals.
 
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on June 25, 2011, 01:10:21 PM
Actually the ME Robin Hood books beginning with #6 were retitled Adventures of Robin Hood" and had photo covers of Richard Green.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: jfglade on June 25, 2011, 03:53:07 PM
 Haven't seen but the first issue or two of Magazine Enterprises version of Robin Hood. I never saw the program while it was still being produced but it was a childhood favorite of my wife and we have the first and last season on DVD. I remember when DC continued Quality's version of Robin Hood, but the version I remember with the fondest memories are the giveaway books that were free in some shoe stores. I talked one of my cousins in Iowas into trading his entire collection of those and many of his commercial comics from Dell and DC for a silver dollar. Silver dollars were still common in Wyoming at that time, so I thought I was getting the best of the deal.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: jfglade on June 27, 2011, 03:36:30 PM
 Thanks for the scans of "Feature Comics" #67. I know it is a very minor milestone in comics history but that issue contains the Spider Widow story in which Tony Gray finally reveals that he is the Raven (and wears one of the goofiest costumes ever worn by a Quality hero which puts him in some strange company). I have a friend who insists that the Raven's identity was never revealed and that the information at GCD about the issue is wrong; I'm going to send him a copy of the final page of that story. I enjoyed the story on its own merits as well what with the very Agatha Christy like situation and Gray being suspected of murder. The Doll Man story is also above average.

Keep on pickin' those Fights, Jon.  We're in your corner.

ETA:  Be sure to check out the Senorita Rio strip in FIGHT #66.  It's done by Jerry Grandenetti and the Eisner Studio, and it does look a lot like The Spirit!
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JVJ (RIP) on July 09, 2011, 10:13:31 PM
They are, indeed, great, dm.
but they are NOT by Grandenetti nor the Eisner studio. To quote the current listing in GCD:
"Historically attributed to Jerry Grandenetti, current comparisons/research make this ID untenable. Possibly a European or South American artist."

Gotta stay current, guy.

Also somebody got the cover for the Funnies #22 you scanned, so we now have issues 1-29 of that title C2C, which is as late as we can go with that book.  I'm still impressed with us having such a solid run of a 30's book.

Now going up in FTP

Out Our Way 1922 and 1923 dailies complete.

Yoc or someone, please remove the old 1922 and 1923 files as those are faulty. No sense causing confusion.  I've also been working on Gasoline Alley and Vignettes of Life (not exactly a comic strip, but by Frank Godwin who later did Connie and Rusty Riley)

You haven't seen me around here much lately. For those of you who know about my health problems, don't worry, that's not it, or not a major factor in any case. The problem is my scanner developed a defect and won't scan without putting a bright pink line down the page.  It's also old and slow so I'm getting a new one real soon now. In fact I asked Jim for another box already. So I'll be back to comic-book scanning instead of just comic strip cleaning soon.

1925 Out Our Way dailies in two parts as I've decided these wonderful strips by Williams deserved larger treatment.

BTW Yoc or somebody, the 1922 file (the one not specifically labeled dailies) can be removed. It is missing the Christmas strip. Otherwise it's identical to the other file there.

Just a note: WinRAR can be configured to default to either ZIP or RAR format when it creates new archives. I also configure mine to not store paths so it won't create a top level folder inside the ZIP file.

Now going to FTP Vignettes of Life for 1925. This is sort of a weekly comic strip by Frank Godwin who is better known for his work on Connie and Rusty Riley. He also drew some Wonder Woman stories.   It's not exactly a comic strip, but exactly as it says vignettes.  It often appeared in the newspaper magazines rather than with the comics. It was printed in color or, in smaller newspapers, in b&w.  These are all b&w. They were all extracted from archives by me and cleaned up.  Personally I think Godwin's line art is stunning and I only hope I didn't do it too much of a disservice.

I also have all of 1924 to post I hope.  It began on June 1st of that year. The only copy of June 15th, titled "The Daily Dozen" that I have is so dark in it's lower right hand corner that I can't read the text to reconstruct.  If anyone knows of any newspapers that carried Vignettes of Life that early please let me know.  It was syndicated by the Philadelphia Ledger so if anyone can access microfilm of that paper please let me know.

Thanks,
Jon

Hi Jon,
I tried adding the file (after a slight rename) and it fails to work.
Downloads wont open it either.

Could you check it's Ok, maybe reupload it?
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on May 11, 2012, 04:54:15 PM
Yoc, I'm reuploading it.  I think the problem was that the individual files were tiffs, and I guess cbz doesn't like that.  I had them as tiffs since they were pure b&w.  I've converted them to pngs and rezipped them.  I checked and my cbreader, at least, will read the file.

The tiff files don't seem to want to work in any reader I try. The only thing I found that works is renaming to zip and extracting and then using some image viewer.

Thanks for these. I know compiling these can be a chore and I am very grateful for all the effort involved.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on September 14, 2012, 12:12:12 AM
I understand, but tiffs are much better for storing b&w images than jpgs. They can be losslessly compressed to a smaller size, but still have much better resolution when expanded. There is an initial jpg (a copy of the first file) in each zip for the preview. The uncompressed tiff files are about 40 times as big.

I think maybe pngs work in cbz (or are they cbp) files, but I prefer tiffs. If anyone wants to batch convert these to pngs, they have my blessing. Personally I just store them as individual files.

Glad you enjoy them.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on September 14, 2012, 06:30:23 AM
Prime has uploaded a jpg conversion of the Sundays file gang.

There is a file size limit of about 100mb per file so Tiffs do mean less per file uploaded.
I'm not sure if PNG files work with the system Jon.  I'll have to do a test.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: cooperway4 on September 14, 2012, 04:03:05 PM
What threw me initially was the cbz extension, if it was just zip I wouldn't have even mentioned it.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Mark Warner on September 15, 2012, 06:47:20 AM
Hi,

I am probably sticking my nose in where it is not wanted. So apologies at the outset. But in my opinion .png is the way to go on these.

Reasons

1) cdisplay and I guess other readers handle them
2) php (which again I guess that you are using for the DCM viewer has .png functions so even if your viewer currently doesn't support them it is an easy change to make. I did it on CB+ a few months back.
3) .png gives better compression and is lossless . I just did a test on oow360105S.tiff
oow360105S.tiff in the archive is 1,079,954 bytes
I converted this to .png and then ran pngout a great utility that maximizes compression the end result 868,352 bytes. Again this may not make any difference to the archive file size as the .png is now very compressed, but it is quite a saving in the unzipped files.

As an aside I am becoming quite a fan of .png's. Especially for small graphics on websites that look OK with 256 colors. Although a bit bigger than the corresponding .jpg they just look that bit cleaner.

That's my nerdishness done for the day

Title: Re: PNG files on DCM
Post by: Yoc on September 15, 2012, 07:45:27 AM
Ok Jon.
I did a PNG test.  Yes, you can use it.  It works with CDisplay and the PREVIEW feature on DCM.
It does NOT work with the cover thumbnail feature.  It shows as a black cover.  Perhaps CaptDJ will add that ability someday.
So, if you want a cover to appear please continue to make the first file a jpg.
I suggest repeating it again as a PNG afterwards if you want the same quality as the following files.
At least your final cbz file sizes wont be as massive.

Title: Re: TIFF files on DCM and the giant cover thumbnail
Post by: Yoc on September 15, 2012, 07:48:54 AM
Jon, sorry but I'll have to delete your Sundays upload.
The giant cover thumbnail chokes that feature for all uploads afterwards so they are stuck at 'No Cover Yet.'
I'll have to delete his file to fix things.
Sorry  :(

I've also found the TIFF files do not work with the PREVIEW feature.  Only the first jpg file will show.
For now I hope you will consider using jpgs or PNG files for future uploads.
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: JonTheScanner on September 15, 2012, 04:21:11 PM
I've used irfanview to do a batch conversion of the tiffs to pngs and have sent a new Sunday file via ftp to the site.

But I have some questions.

What am I doing when I request a compression level? I'd like a lossless compression so I'd think I couldn't select a level of compression. I can't select 0 compression as the files are huge. A 6 (default) compression appears to be lossless, at least there are no gray edges when I look at a greatly expanded version in Gimp (Note Irfan view does show gray artifacts, but I think it's just that program as it does so with the Tiffs as well. In any case this is what I used.

Do I use PNGOUT? If so there are a bewildering set of options to chose from. Anyone have any ideas?







Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: Yoc on September 15, 2012, 06:05:34 PM
Sorry Jon, I just used the default 6.
Try Google or Wiki maybe?
Title: Re: Jon's uploads
Post by: John C on September 16, 2012, 05:50:20 AM
I don't know anything specific about IfranView, Jon, but PNG's compression is lossless no matter the level.  I think the levels are a throwback to the old days when compression and decompression took a long time and tied up the entire computer.  Low levels of compression produce larger files, but "easier" to decompress.  However, with today's computers, the space is probably much more important.

Jon,
Just a reminder, that first jpg image you add for our sake.  Could you please make sure it's no more than 2mb in file size?
Really large jpgs will choke the auto cover thumbnail feature and any new uploads from that point will just show 'no cover yet.'  It was that sign that told me we had a problem with one of your newspaper strips.  All black thumbnails only show for PNG files.

Thanks again for all the uploads you've given us!

Nice timing on the Starlet O'Hara #4, I was looking to see if we had a copy literally yesterday to see the Frazetta illos.

By dumb luck, I happened to get a couple of Standard books with Frazetta illos in a small batch I was bidding on for a different book entirely, will try and get those scanned fairly soon if the JVJ crew doesn't beat me to them; the find made me want to see what else we had available.  (It was a good buy, 2 books with Frazetta text illos and March of Comics #3 for under $40 after shipping...)

Anyway, thanks for the upload!

I am baffled to see Starlet O'Hara #4 go up.
I hold the exact book (from JVJ) in my hands.
Scanned it last month, but hadn't uploaded it yet.
 ::)
So there'll be a different version coming, but I'll wait till spring or summer.
I hadn't requested that book, but Jim packed it for me. Filling up gaps in Standard titles.
My mind just boggles concerning this cosmic coincidence.
File it under "scanning bureaucracy glitch".
Jim is handling thousands of books - and I don't blame him.

I checked the date modified on my copy of Starlet O'Hara In Hollywood 04 (1949) (Standard) (JVJ-Two).cbr and it says March 15, 2010. That puts it pre-DCM and if I'm not mistaken the upload feature at GAUK was broken at the time.

Jim is handling thousands of books - and I don't blame him.

If all of us find it hard to keep track of the scans of his books, just think how hard it must be to keep track of the actual books. :P

Jon,

I have them, just have not edited them. Since they weren't done, I limited the announcement to the 2nd series. Should have them done by the weekend.

Also, I grabbed the Hit 33 from the DC++ and upped it earlier.

Post by: JonTheScanner on November 11, 2013, 06:15:15 PM
Thanks, MovieLover.  Just checking so I don't edit something anyone else has. So far I've just edited things I've not put the raws out for. 

I tried to get to DCM yesterday to put up Hit #33, but no luck.

Thanks for the edits.

The Mighty Atom and the Pixies #6 (continued the Pixies series)
Mighty Atom #1 and Mighty Atom #3 from the 1957 series now in FTP. The latter two are reprints of Pixies 4 and MA&tP #6.

Whether the #6 should go into the Pixies folder or not I leave up to you.  If not it should probably be identified as not be in the same series as 1 and 3. That series only had 3 issues.

Thanks Jon but Witches Western Tales 29+30 are reprints of Boys Ranch 5+6 which are not PD.
Western Tales 31 was renewed so it's not PD either.  32 has more Boys Ranch so it's out as well.

Only #33 seems to be safe.

I've added a note to that section on the site.

In honor of the great Jumbo uploads, I looked through all our Jumbos and found I could do a tiny bit of improvement in replacing damaged or occasionally missing ibc and bc.  Missing come from Heritage.  Otherwise I grabbed good copies from other Fiction House comics when we had a damaged or fiche copy I could use for verification.  Affected comics are:

Jumbo 39 64 133 151 160

None of the story pages or front covers have been affected if that's all you care about.

Now on FTP.

Back in the 1960's there was an Urban Legend among St. Louis area fans. Somewhere, stored away in company records, were five copies of every comic ever printed at 420 DeSoto Ave.

AFAIK, if they ever existed, they were never found.
