Ok, so the scanner I have can scan 2000 ppi x 1000 ppi, but it cant interpolate up to 4800 ppi.
First off, ignore any interpolating number. It's usually garbage. A lot like digital zoom on a camera, all hype and it's just the computer or camera guessing at the extra pixels.
So I'm left with 2000 x 1000. I'd scan at 1000 ppi since that wont interpolate either side.

Most prints are made at 300 ppi. So if you wanted to blow up that 4×6 into an 8×12 you'd want at least 600 ppi, but 1000 would be just fine. 1000 would also allow me some editing and cropping room as well.

good thing to add with this econamy/key got stuck.
my friend just lost his job over a year,and traded in a mint condition truck for a camry,had less tha 500 mile,and in 2 months he was laid off.
good luck to all

First, check your credit reports. You will need a FICO score of at least 645 for most lenders.

Second, start saving some cash. Most of the "no money down" programs are a thing of the past. You'll need a couple of thousand for the earnest money, inspection, and apprisal. Then you should consider saving up about $3,000 to $5,000 for the downpayment on the mortgage.

Make sure you have all of your business records ready to show to a mortgage broker. The days of "no document" loans are long gone.

There are several things that a mortgage broker will look at:
1) Middle FICO score (credit score) should be 645 or better.
2) 2 Years in the same trade line (2 years of the same type of job).
3) Debt to Income ratio. Is you debt more than 45% of your total income? If so, that can be a problem.

If your credit needs work, there are several law firms that can help. www.LexingtonLaw.com is one that I've heard good things about. But keep in mind that some mortgage brokers will also advise you on how to clean up your own credit at no extra charge to you.

I hope that helps!

Well that's just silly! BUT that's progressive for you!!

Call another company for an auto quote!!!! The last thing you want is to have your insurance lapse because they won't allow payment plan arrangements.

Maybe you could even find better insurance for less premium!

There are other companies who are more accommodating with payment plans and special claim handling service (rated better in expert claim handling and customer service) than progressive. Progressive is pretty much good for high risk drivers.

SOOO before you let this time sensitive matter go to long, call another insurance company and get an active policy with them just cancel your progressive policy (THEN you will see that they will try to do anything to save ya!)

BEFORE YOU GET TOO FRUSTRATED CALL ANOTHER INSURANCE COMPANY OTHER THAN PROGRESSIVE FOR A QUOTE!

GOOD LUCK! And Don't STRESS! Try to be calm and call around for quotes!
