Oh, yes the name tag is from the net. That is about as hi tech as I have gotten digitally.(LOL) The logo is new and I am not happy with the result of that either, but this was a gift to someone. About all I do to my drawing digitally is erase all the specs from around it and sometimes add highlights.
Thanks again for the help!

higher resolution shouldn't cause you any more problems. i hate to lead you the wrong direction so now you've got me wondering what's up. If you're scanning an image and then bringing it into a new PS file rather than manipulating the scanned file itself, then I would make sure both files are the same format and resolution ... or that your PS file is no lower than 300dpi. Always keep in mind that monitors as well as color settings from machine to machine are going to differ slightly at the very least and some times significantly. If (and i say if) you opened 3 files, all exactly the same resolution and all RGB or CMYK - one PDF, one JPEG, one TIFF - they really should look more or less the same on screen in PS. If you move these files between programs and computers, then yes they could look different, but nothing drastic I shouldn't think. I would definately play with the scanner presets and find one you like or one you can work the best with.
