I started updating the pressing info page

..with proper scans.
Slowly I am hoping to get around to doing most of it.
Started with BOLD:
revcollectors.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=59

I made the images clickable so that you can get full res when clicked.

Dude,

Image looks great.

However, my OCD tendencies kicked in a bit, and I found myself wishing that all the labels were the same way round, with the BOLD logo at the bottom. So if you could please re-do it, that would be great. Thanks!

Actually I DID scan it at first with all the labels aligned but it kind of looked.... weird. It somehow didn't sit with me too well. I don't know why. So I randomized the whole lot.
I do want to re-do it for another reason though. I arranged the records so that the outer edge of the vinyl touched the center hole. For whatever reason the black vinyl moved to the right (I guess when I closed the scanner?) so there's a small space between the edge of the orange and center hole of the black. This bothers the fuck out of me. If I ever get around to re-scanning these it will be because of that because trust me, the labels all aligned look way too creepy

If you want to really get OCD and artsy, the Test Press should have the "B" in BOLD at 12 o'clock with the rest of the records rotating clockwise, so the records appear to be rotating left to right.

I love the scan though, it looks pretty slick and I didn't even notice the edge touching the center hole until you pointed it out.

cheers.

Have you still got the first version with all the labels alligned? I'd like to see it. I'm curious as to just how weird it looks.

I haven't saved it. I had it scanned to photoshop and just closed the file without saving it after I decided to go with the randomized version
I just thought it looked too... still. And sort of boring. Kind of gave you this army camp feel when if your bed doesn't look neat enough you have to do pushups.
I guess I need an element of chaos to everything
