What's the best place to upload scans of vintage magazines?
archive.org hands down, wouldn't consider anywhere else for this material.
We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I just had some magazines removed and my account locked by a DMCA complaint. So it's not as unlikely as you think.
Archive. Nyaa. And private torrents. Im personally interested in what u have so do share here please. At least know one more guy is interested in it.
Will do
Besides archive.org, exhentai hosts scans of non-hentai anime magzines/doujinshi like Newtype as well, so you could always upload a gallery there. Nothing wrong with throwing a torrent of the scans up on nyaa either. If you're specifically thinking about cleaning up the raw scans before releasing them [not TL'ing, just mild cleaning] but aren't sure where to start for automation then it might be worth asking around in scanlation communities about automatic Photoshop actions for color leveling/rotating + cropping, I've heard that those are viable nowadays but don't know the details. Either way best of luck, I have some stuff sitting around that I've wanted to get into scanning for myself.
