there has been a craze of people on this mighty fine and well maintained website that do not know how to resize the pictures of their beautiful integras...i will show u step by step how to resize and scale the images so that it does not take a day to load one picture (especially 56k *****). even though we all know what the basic integra looks all the same already, and yet we still wait 10 minutes to see another integra almost the same looking as ours just a different color and different shoes...so here goes, if there are any experts that would like to add to this very basic tutorial, u are welcome to post whatever u feel like...

ADOBE PHOTOSHOP:

(the transform way)
1.select the layer ur picture is on by clicking on the layer (make sure the layer is not locked)
2.select the image on the working space until u see "dancing ants" going around the image by going to SELECT>All, see the dancing ants yet?
3. as they are dancing, goto EDIT>FREE TRANSFORM
4. drag a corner of the picture pulling it in to make it smaller, vice versa, and then click the check button to finalize the resizing.
DONE!!!!!!!

(the image sizing way)
1.follow the same first 2 steps above
2.goto IMAGE>IMAGE SIZE, under document size, (make sure in inches for better understanding)change the image to whatever size u want, (make sure its checked for constrain porportions) WIDTH AND HEIGHT, make sure the resolution is no larger than 150pixels/inch for faster loading, and confirm by hitting OKAY
DONE!!!

enjoy the tutorial, didnt mean to make it so idiotical. just wanted to make things a little easier for some people. any questions?

 

nice write up. i'd recommend staying away from the free transform as you potentially mess up the height/width ratio of the photo.

its easier to just adjust the photo size under the image menu.

 

that's why you hold down shift and drag the corner so it keeps the aspect ratio of the pic.

 

For those w/o photoshop you can do it in MS Paint also. File-open-select the pic you want from your hard drive-image-stretch/scew.

Then type in the horizontal and vertical boxes how much smaller then 100% you want them(IE: 50% would be half the size as original)

Then just slick save!

 

I use Photoimpression, it works great, less than 5 sec to open, resize and save each picture.

 

id also recommend using the save for web function to keep sizes minimal for us dial up users.......... a jpg medium is perfect for online viewing.......

But with MS Paint you lose some of the resolution of the pic.
