I just got some pictures back from developement, and i scanned them onto my computer. The scan is alot worse than the image actually is on the film. I was wondering if anyone would like to take a stab at making things "pop" a little more.

Best of luck. I've tried scanning both the pictures (moderate luck) as well as the negatives (not working out well). I think my next attempt may to get a picture CD included with the developing, that was I can take my scanning element right out of the pictures. I just can't get the details I'd like out of scanning...

Did you scan a print or a negative or slide?

How does your scan compare with your original? If your original was a print, and this matches the print, then you need to go back to the place that printed them, and tell them that you do not want the sky balanced for daylkight, but for nighttime. (Actually, unless you had it done at a professional place, do not go back in there and thell them that, they will not know what you mean.)
