When I scan my BGS cards, The label ends up being focused on and clear, and the rest of the card ends up blurry. Any tips or fixes?
You can try a higher DPI, i do 300 DPI and it works fine.
If your scanner wont do it, then you can do it in photoshop. Tutorial here: http://www.ehow.com/how_5849419_convert-...oshop.html. Also make sure that your scanner is in a dark area as any little light seeping in can change the outcome of the scan.

Not sure it this is the reason why its going out of focus but its worth a shot.
get a dark towel and put it over your scanner if the cards force your lid to be anything but flush against the surface of the scanner. I personally like the photo bucket iPhone app....not near as good as a 300 dpi scan but extremely easy ... take pic and hit upload ... Smile
