	Zongadude Member since Sep 2010 36 Points	I was in love with 45cat, and I just discovered 45worlds and I'm full of joy :) I happen to have access to a A3 scanner at work. As you all know 12'' sleeves are just a little bit too big for them, but you can work your way around most of the times: -Place the 12'' sleeve in the scanner in a position where the portion that is gonna be out of the range of the scanner is not too important (i.e. a colour surface or white border, etc...) -Scan the sleeve -In Photoshop, choose Canvas Size and after clicking the proper anchor ("arrowed square"), enlarge the height or width by 102 percents. -Therefore you'll obtain the full canvas for the sleeve. All you have to do now is fill the missing area with the proper material. A lot of the times it will be some plain colour (black or white), or you can sample the facing area of the sleeve and mirror it, if it's a pattern, etc.... Use your imagination ! It would be great if everyone using A3 scanners on the site could take the time to do this trick the best they can. I know I will try everytime. You can view my first attempt at Paul McCartney's UK 12'' for "Put it there".
