Question I took one of the images and enlarged it 400% and then did some contrast adjustment and can see a lot of pixilation around the words in
the areas of the writting ? is this normal


I went ahead and did the same type of enlargment and contrast work on one of my own Protolables and dont see anything like this ?
could this just be the difference in camera/scanner resolution or something else ?


Here are two screen captures of what I noticed the first two are the pictures from the auction the last one is from my own scan
you may need to look at these at 100% size to see the pixilation

Ebay compresses the images when you upload them. It's just pixelation from compression. People do similar things on moon images to find "hidden structures" but it's just the crappy jpeg quality.

It's called JPEG artifacts, this would not happen with a PNG for instance. JPEG is a lossy compression format, like MPEG2 (see crappy cable artifacting).
