Mark,
Pixel Genius Web Sharpening - 800 pixel setting.
I'll re-post with zero sharpening; straight scan with some level setting and 
see what you think.
Thanks for the feedback,
Bob

It does look like instead of unsharp mask you are using a new third party
high tech algorithm rich borrowed from the CGI folks SHARPENING FROM HELL!!!
AND LOTS OF IT!!! For a whole new look.
I'd move back from it by half or two thirds.
And would love to see the stuff as well from the FP4.
Again less jacked up.
