I'm going to scanlate a manga but it's the first time I've ever done something like this so I was wondering if anyone can recomend a program or programs to use and if possible a download link. Thanks!!
scanlate? 0_0 are you the editor or something? i can only suggest photoshop to edit the scans... it have all-round goodness and somewhat easy to learn. there are some tutorials for edit/clean the scans around the net (or in scanlation teams website), and they use photoshop too.
There's a nice tutorial here exlpaining how to clean with Photoshop.
Good luck with your first release! I personally use photoshop cs :3 I find it really easy to use XD Here's a useful site. http://www.n-u-l-l.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page I think it's pretty informative n__n Most scanlation groups will have links to other editing tutorials. :]
