Signature Picture

[AndyP & Lenore]

I think what Malcolm wants is the full sized sig, ie, 500 x 100 pixels, but, soz, that can't work with this piccie, however, if he's happy enough to go for the correct height, then what you did is ok, but, it won't be anywhere near the 500 pixels wide.

For future reference, the way you need to take this type of picture to be used as a sig, you should turn the camera through 90 degrees, that way it gives the length x width ratio.
Note, it doesn't work the same as rotating the image

Surely if you turn the camera 90 dgs the image will be taller than it is long (portrait) on an average camera, For a signature, you want an image that is longer than tall (landscape)???

If all you want is a cropped section 500 x 100 I don't suppose what way you hold the camera is important as the resolution of all modern cameras is way more than this. Just make sure you take a suitable snap!

Yeah. What he said.

Hmm, i didn't explain it very well, but, i know what i mean :o .............but, as Angus has suggested, there are other ways

Well Andy it defo worked, but a tad large. I wll work on getting image smaller. but at least it took the file size.

Malcolm, the shrunk pic I did for you is saved at http://www.reachercreatures.com/fun_...ssypic_sig.jpg

Click that link and it will open the pic.

You really need to save that pic yourself though, stick it in photobucket and then use your own link, 'cos sooner or later I'll accidentally delete your pic and you're snookered again.

Like I said, gimme a number and I'll call you if you like. No problem.:)

Andy, thanks again for all your help. I managed to resize it and load it using your original instructions, So you can loose the photo you stored for me.
I won't be changing it for a long time, by which time I'll have forgotten how to do it again.......Doh!
It's a bit like that other thing Sioban goes on about

I'll help in any way I can.

What is it your having trouble with? Is it getting the picture to be the right size? Or actually uploading it to newminiscotland.co.uk?
