My elevator pitch for all new connections & followers: Hey there! I'm a multimedia professional specializing in still image repair, restoration & enhancement, along with legacy media (VHS, LD, Vinyl) conversion/editing. '80s-'90s music, gaming, films, and anime are my jam :)
@Majora__Z Don't have any experience with the Pulsetek, personally. The Epson functions best with completely flat material(s), but I've had good results in a pinch with things that don't lay entirely flat.
Epson V600s are such incredible scanners, I recently snagged a 2nd from a local seller on FB Marketplace. Apparently discontinued, not a bad idea to keep watch for anything priced at $200 or under. Replacement parts (glass, etc.) were still available as of roughly two months ago.
@mitchell_n_hang Best way I've personally found is to order (what is essentially) the entire upper half of the scanner's shell. That upper black plastic surround includes the glass already attached. Fairly simple install, too.
Recent late night browsing of Japanese auction listings, yielded a nice lot of Outlanders goodies, some of which are listed as special gift to the first 10 people admitted into the "Victor Anime Fair". Repro genga & shikishi, an oversized acrylic (?) badge, color video flyer...
@ScarletSprites@sternpinball Pinball is *far* deeper than the average casual player knows. Hell, I was in a league, and felt I barely scratched the surface of understanding competitive play, or proper play in general. More than just whacking the ball around attempting to keep it in play.
@spudermanani21 Time will tell, when NDAs have run their course, and how freely he chooses to speak on the matter. The whole thing has been as sad as it is confusing.
I've retyped this post multiple times trying to find the proper words...ranging from CrunchyLOL, to simply get f*cked. Objectively an awful company that has done absolutely everything in its power to squander the massive, pre-installed userbase it inherited from RightStuf.
The Crunchyroll Store sent an email out to their affiliate partners announcing they are shutting down the affiliate program today
β’ An official "reason" hasn't been officially stated, my assumption would be further cost cutting on Crunchyroll's end
