Retouched scans in galleries. . . Thoughts? (Wed Nov 19 04:55:31 2003 )

Tonight I finally have an hour to scan a couple 
cels. One is from Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust, 
and (as usual for the movie) it's very dark. When 
I scan it, my scanner decides: "WOW! Look at all 
this great dust! I'll highlight that!"  ~_~;;

Efforts to clean the scanner enough to get a good 
scan were unsuccessful. So I airbrushed out the 
dust. I never clean up scans and didn't like 
doing it, because (other than a watermark) I like 
to present my cels as they are, with no touch-ups.

I'm curious what others think about touching up 
scans for a gallery. Do people commonly do it? Do 
people think touched-up scans should be noted? 
How do people think it effects offers made on, or 
sales made from, a cel gallery -- that scans might
be touched up for display with no notation?

Many Sharp Smiles,
--Drac
