I've always found scanned images to be somewhat flat and too "contrasty",
but it's a really good option for those without a camera. Would be hard for
the original poster to scan her family though. LOL! ;-)

I have an Olympus 3030 digital camera. It works great but, the hard part
is
getting the lighting correct. I found the easiest way to get good pictures
of jewelry and beads is to use a flat bed scanner. If you check my website
that's how I took all of the pics.
