I really enjoyed going through this set.  They motivate me to get off my 
tail and look some more.  The one of the bride and groom entering the 
$4.95 buffet is great - though she is in for a difficult life I think.   
I don't know what is causing the artifacts.  To me they look like severe 
jpg artifacts.  I can really see it in the first image of the set, of 
the two women at the table.  Maybe not scanned at high enough 
resolution?  For b&w film I scan at 360ppi at final output size, 16-bit 
depth and 8X oversampling (on the Nikon scanner), and then resize and 
convert to jpg as needed for the web (usually jpg level 10).
