Postby 1lightningd » Sun Aug 20, 2006 9:15 pm

I brought the young fellow to see the new Cars movie to-day, it was brill. I think I enjoyed it more than him. But I was a small bit dissapointed by the absence of a mini in it :cry: . Anyway it was a great movie and I highly recomend seeing it. Anyone who doesent have smallies at home, I am will'ing to rent mine out. :D

What's the best way of getting signature pictures down to a reasonable size i.e. 6k without them looking pants?

Cheers!

Cheers Ger, a way to make sure your signature pictures are pretty and very un pants like is to save them in the right format. For photos generally your best bet is to save them as .jpg, but for images using flat colours like logos your better to save them as .gif. In most programs you can toggle the settings of how sharp your image can be saved at, either change the jpeg quality for jpg’s or reduce the number of colours used for gif’s, there are other finer options too but generally that should do the trick. Doing this can make a big difference in file size so your various pictures can load faster.

If this little explanation is no help you can always send me your original picture and Ill optimize it for you. J
