	Changing file size of a picture without altering dimensions? Increase the size of your Attachments

Need to know, sick of making "do it for me" threads

(It's a jpg)

	Increase the size of your Attachments

PSP (and Photoshop somewhere) have a "save for web" feature that lets you optimize jpgs by altering the level of compression used for it.

	Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Here's how to do it with Paint Shop Pro (you can find the 30 days evaluation version at http://www.paintshoppro.com/ )

- Open the file in Paint Shop Pro
- In the menus at the top of the screen, select the "Image" menu
- Choose "Resize"
- have both boxes at the bottom of the new window checked.
- tell the size in pixels or in percentage of the x axis. The y axis will adapt automatically.
- Save the file.

And voilą !

To have a transparent background, you need a gif image. The jpg format doesn't support transparent backgrounds AFAIK.
- Save your file as a .gif
- go to the menu "colors"
- click on "set palette transparency"
- select white. You must make sure the background uses all the exact same white
- Save your file.

Bingo !

Edit: again, all of this in Paint Shop Pro.

You can't save it as a jpeg, because jpeg doesn't do transparency, and you have to make sure the transparency option is set on when you save it as a gif.

Don't get too attached to your avatar - I'll see if nobody else wants to bother playing, but I'd give you 50 to 1 odds it ain't gonna last.

Hey, it's got a banana in it! Censoring anything with a banana in it would be un-Apolytonian!

Hmmmm... what if I get her to hold a banana suggestively. Surely you would give that picture immunity for my efforts, Mike?

No kidding. If I had a few grand laying around and a lack of ever changing "ideas" for the future - I'd be joining in (with an extra hottie and maybe a cute boy, to make things interesting)

	Suffering from ads?

how do you keep or get motion in a gif image?

for example this picture.


I can't use photodeluxe with that gif image. it cancels the moving motion.


because you know what would really be cool. Having that girl slide the banana in and out of her mouth . Of course that avatar definately would not last long

You need a program such as Image Ready that deals with animated GIF files.

IW: Maybe nothing will happen, but you probably should have paid more attention to the post you quoted and MtG's post:

Until someone cares enough to complain, it can stay there.
