can someone please resize this for me?

[luvofallhorses]

It's huge and I don't want the quality lowered too low..

please and thanks in advance!

Is this okay?

(I took the white background out, not sure if that's what the maker was doing?)

[luvofallhorses]

yeah, they made it huge and I didn't want it to off-set the page. Thanks so much, Kay!

It's not really that big... just 700 pixels wide, but I did change your res to 300 vs 72 dpi and compressed it to make a smaller actual file (in MB). I also lightened Buster and black dog (color corrected) so they dont look so muddled. Hope this works for you.

yes, I know thanks. but there is a size limit here (25 kb) and I didn't want to break the rules of that.

If you ever need a program that resizes images, for free, look at Irfanview

[luvofallhorses]

thanks, I have that but I don't know how to use it. I do have jasc paint shop pro 9 but when I resize sigs/avatars it reduces the quality.

[Jessika]

After you resize with Paint Shop Pro, go to

effects > sharpen > sharpen

and sharpen it once or twice. DON'T use "sharpen more" because that usually OVER sharpens it. Well I mean use it if you'd like.

Also MAKE SURE when you are saving as a .jpg click the "options" button on the "save as" screen and make sure the compression rate is a low number, 10 or less.

[luvofallhorses]

ok, I did that, thanks! but what I am confused on how do I do the compression rate 10 or less??

When you go to file > save as

And select .jpg from the dropdown menu of file types

There is a button to the right that says "options...". If you click it, a window will pop up where you can change the compression rate

Here it is at 24K!

(It's easy to do in Photoshop, which is what I use, but it is an expensive program, so I don't expect everyone to have it!)

thanks, Karen!
