brendalaThis may sound like a stupid question, but is there a special technique for properly scanning your drawings onto the computer?
Everything I scan seems to have a slight blue-ish tint and looks really grainy no matter how pristine the actual drawing is. Is it a matter of having a good scanner (mine is kinda cheap)? Or should I scan it into a different program (I currently scan them into MS Paint because that program is easy to use)?
Any advice would be very much appreciated!
P.S. When giving me advice, please use simple terms because I'm really stupid when it comes to computer stuff. :P

I use Photoshop and even with an older (Epson) scanner, I've had no complaints with how my scanned drawings look. Photoshop even lets you change the resolution and color tones of the image before you scan it, which is wonderful when just scanning pencil/pen art.
