[luvofallhorses]

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.

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!

You're welcome!

Guess you didn't like my resizing!


Maybe be under 25KB, but a bit too big in pixels, IMO.

It is easier resizing to 25KB in Photoshop...But if you do it in PSP the quality goes down and it looks really bad :\

Not necessarily. You just have to know what you're doing and how to alter the image to make it look good. I use PSP to resize all of my sigs, like the one I have now, and its below 25K. Of course doing it to larger images is harder.

I don't have photoshop.

oh no, I like it! i think the cream-colored background makes the siggie HUGE.
