How you handle images is another thing entirely. Copyright needs to be considered whenever a book is scanned. Double so when images are in it which

It is perfectly legal to scan pages from a book. The fact that the text and images are copyrighted is irrelevant. Copyright comes into play with the *use* of the scans. As long as the scans are for personal use and not distributed there’s no problem.
Besides, I came here for iformation on using Photoshop, not a lecture on copyright.
When you post in a public forum you get the replies that readers of the thread decide to post. No replies are owed to you, and you don’t have control of what is in the replies. It’s a newsgroup, not a Help Desk. Anything you get is offered as a favor to you.
Whether or not Douglas’s comment, or my comment, was of interest to you is immaterial. Someone else may benefit if you don’t. Frankly, I don’t care if you benefit or not.
If you don’t like the replies you get, Google up your own answers.
