PowderdToastMan Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 i have an image that i want to put on my first mod, but its too big. Does anyone know how i can shrink the file size so it fits?
alonsomartinez Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Try saving as .jpeg. If that doesn't work, use a program like Paint.net , Gimp, or PS to scale it down.
PowderdToastMan Posted August 13, 2011 Author Posted August 13, 2011 thanks i have gimp and have never really used it. i was able to figure it out just now.
Thandal Posted August 13, 2011 Posted August 13, 2011 Ummm... use the "Resize" control? The Purple indicates where it is with Paint (Win7 ver. There's a similar control on a secondary menu in WinXP.)

KDStudios Posted August 14, 2011 Posted August 14, 2011 Resizing works great, I personally use GIMP though. Using the Scale Image button and selecting the Quality to "None" it shouldn't remove a lot of quality from the image. Alternate between None and Cubic and see which one you prefer. Then once you're finished be sure to save it as a Jpeg, then depending on how big you want the image, adjust the quality of it. Don't make it too low though.. The quality is horrible and enough to make even the mightiest eyes bleed.
