Ditto. I have a flatbed scanner at work and home, and PaintShop Pro in
both locations, so can scan stuff for people. Same rules as above apply.
NOTE, however, that living in/near Sillycon Valley, IF you have a computer
at home, there is really no excuse NOT to own a scanner. Parallel port
ones cost $30-40 after rebate at stores around here, and you can ALWAYS
find one in that price range somewhere each week. My home one was $30
after rebate, and works just fine.
I can help out on SIMPLE HTML design - haven't learned JavaScript yet.
