I tried scanning a print and then posting it but it turned out pretty bad compared to the original print. Jagged lines, slightly blurry, etc.
What do you folks use to scan your prints, slides, negatives, etc.? I have a Epson Perfection 636 scanner that is about 3 years or so old. I'm not sure what the resolution is. It is one I've used for work to scan documents and things to fax but not really much for pictures. I've only become active in photography seriously in the last few months.
I have a digital camera and the pictures from it load fine but I am more interested in 35mm for my "serious" photography. It is a little dishartening to have a picture you think is good to then load it up for others to critique only to have it turn out so bad on the computer.
Here is the one that turned out so bad on the computer.

Here is a digital of our cat and it seems fine:

Thanks for any suggestion
