For the life of me I could not read the scans of this story: all I saw was a blue screen and a black dot. |

me, too. No worky. Also the case for Don Winslow and Crime & Punishment. |

Dunno. But both this Clue scan and the Crime & Punishment mentioned worked for me after conversion to .cbz files and viewed in FFView. Nice scans, too, BTW. |

If you change the filename extension to .cbr, you can read it normally in cdisplay (or other comic-book reader software, I assume).
Or..... if you want to be able to view the individual .jpgs, first extract the scanfiles as you normally would. Then, load each scan in file-editing software and save it, overwriting the 'original'. You should now be able to view the scan. After doing the whole comic, you can re-save the images in a new .zip file if you prefer. |

A little complex... but it does work (in Infraview). Thanks, guys. |

Since there have been no comments on this for some time, I assume that most have figured out that a *.zip file is probably neither a *.cbr or a *.rar file. So far, consistently, changing *.zip to *.cbz ("Comic Book Zip) works fine; changing *.rar to *.cbr ("Comic Book Roshal archive") also works. But .rar and .zip files use different compression algorhythms, so changing the name from *.rar to *.cbz will probably -- almost certainly -- not work, and the same is true of *.zip to *.cbr. This pedantic exercise is brought to you by the letter P. |
