Unfortunately once I looked closely at my scan, I noticed that my scanner decided to start producing a weird and ugly vertical stripe artifact. I rescanned and it remains. So my optimism was premature. D:
I'm now trying whether I can get the scanner in the the cheap multifunctional printer to work, which printing capabilities broke soon after its warranty expired, yet which I haven't thrown out in the years since.
It's always something. >:(
ETA: And it turns out the stupid other scanner won't work with linux. Argh. I bet in art exchanges the "my scanner doesn't work right" issue is like "the dog ate my homework" excuse... Thankfully another scanning utility with my regular scanner doesn't produce the odd stripe. *phew* So now after wasting some two hours or so, I can finally try to get back to the original color and warping issues.
