Thank you
I like Anthraquinone's idea a bit cruel but there are millions more of the annoying little bugs and 1 or 2 gone missing wont harm the world will it.
Rob Barron i just get lost.....so lost when it comes to resizing i just know that pixalo only allows pics to be no more than 300kb and 1000pix wide so i open with cs3 and reduce size to about 900 then save for web and drag the quality slider down intil it gets under the 300kb size.
I just dont get my head around the percent pixels for instance if i open a shot which is on my desktop in cs3 and click image, up pops the box i then have pixel dimesions which says 1.62m ? dont know why it says this as my picture is 476kb. I then have a drop down box which can adjust the image in pixels or percent again i dont understand the difference. Below is a further box which has 3 options, width, height and resolution now the width and height can be changed by percent, inches, cm, mm, points or picas and the resolution can be changed by pixels/inch or pixels by cm
I believe this all changes again when sizing for computer or for printing and i believe the industry standard for printing is 300dpi or is that ppi
and for computer its 72 dpi or ppi
. If this is the case i wonder why we dont just have a 72 dpi/ppi and a 300 dpi/ppi check box as whats the need for 96dpi/ppi or indeed any other number
Also we have scale styles, constrain proportions (which i think i understand keeps everything relative) and resample image. Again im lost with these. Also i dont know what the bicubic, bilinear, nearest neighbor, bicubic smoother and bicubic sharper options do
As you can probably guess im a little bit confused over resing and pixels/dimensions/document sizes/ etc
Any advice or links on resizing images the correct way i would welcome
gives me a headache just trying to explain it never mind learn it
