Anyone helping Mr Smither, note that he is using the method listed in his other thread to obtain the scanned image and put it in a picturebox. So this is basically a "what is the fastest way to convert an image in a picturebox to black and white" question.
The only way I know of Mr Smither would be individual pixel manipulation, but i'm sure someone has a much more clever and quicker way of doing it.
no sorry although i appriciate the thought i discoverd that the past that you showed is far to complicated for what i want to do!
he is a good friend that speaks well of us behind our backs
