I will have the photos displayed through a Projector on to a wall. The scanner setting are asking me for to identify setting / sizes: DPI PPI Resolution Can you give me your input based on how I want to display the photos what the settings should be? Thanks for your input............. Alex

HI, I have never done this before, but I have a show coming up, and I have 20 years old 35 m negatives. So I need to scan them. The saner is asking me 1. DPI? 2. PPI 3. Resolution I have two rolls one is color, the other is b & w. I will have a Digital show, meaning after I scan the photos, they will be displayed via a projector onto a large wall. Please let me know what the setting should be for scanning. Thank you in advance for your input Kind Regards Alex

Thank you all for your detailed responses. I have been on photo.net for 20 years now. I now know why :) It's a great place to get feedback and answers from other photographers. Amazing... Thank you all. I think I will try LIghthouse and see what happens from there.

Thank you. This is very helpful

Thank you, very helpful.

Can anyone recommend a good easy to use software for photography except Photoshop? Thank you

My question is: Is putting a watermark on a photo enough for someone not to print it or replicate it as their own? Or do I also need to make the resolution smaller? Cheers Alex

Ahh thank you. I did hit contact it did not take me anywhere. No email or phone number. But I am happy to know its not just my account. Thank you Fred.

I been with them for over 17 years, all of the sudden my photos are not showing. Does anyone know how to contat them? This is the first time I am trying. Kind Regards Alex

Thank you for your input. A very good idea :)) Simple and to the point.

Thank you WW, I see you point. I spoke to the organization, they not willing to do an email blast to thousands of their followers. Do to their privacy laws. I asked. They are willing to promote me on their social media. I need to find out the traffic. I also clearly understand your point about limited edition, makes sense. This will be my first run, so I dont want to price the prints to high. In order to see how many will actually sell. However, you brought up an interesting point, I might offer limited time ( say 3 months). This way i can create another photo shoot after that time. I also can see what the response will be.

HI AJG, Thank you for your valuable input. That is what I gathered. My name is not Pal Strand or Edward Weston, unfortunately. Limited editions are great but I am no where near them. It was a good idea though. Unfortunately non-profit can not help me with this issue at hand. Its is completely up to me and good people like yourself to decide how to prices the prints. For now I am thinking in or around $99 dollars for a standard print 10 x 18. ,
