The Passionate Wife

I'm a little late to the game, but got Jim Morrison. I tried to post it but it says the pic is too large. Are you all snipping, saving and uploading, or are you linking directly to the pic on the game site? I'm really good with computers and feel like a complete moron right now. :/

The [img] BBcode is disabled on here, so you need to save and upload the picture with your post.


Try downsizing the picture to conform with the new image uploading rules, also check your application to optimize the picture while resizing, this reduces file size more than resolution can do some times.

TPW'S Passionate Thought of the Day:


There are two things in life that as soon as you finish you cannot wait to do it again. Sleeping and sex.

Thanks bud, I need to practice. What "application" are you talking about? Now I just feel plain stupid.

For now, I just copied TPW's pic since she got the same thing.

Some image resizing or editing applications/programs also offer the option to optimize the output picture as well, so the file size is smaller without affecting the visual image quality (by much, depending on the ratio you choose).

Original size - 53.6KB Capture.JPG

Same image opened with GIMP and exported as .jpg with 50% JPEG Image Quality. No other changes were made. New size - 28.8KB Capture2.JPG

Very slight difference in quality.

---

Same image saved at 10% quality. Obviously lower quality, but now 11.8KB

I use ScreenHunter Free to capture selected areas of the screen, and GIMP to edit and save the images. I also use GIMP for all my image editing needs, because it's free, open source, and packed with more features than I'll ever need.

MrB8 just does this stuff with his mind. Mortals must resort to manual labor. But it's worth it to keep bandwidth usage and storage space down.

Good stuff DFC.

I personally use the "Snippet" feature built into Win7, and paint.net program, for the exact same reasons as you stated.

Easy to use, and quick. There's probably a bunch of options out there.

Thanks workin_4_it! I often use mspaint for quick crop jobs. GIMP takes a bit longer to load if it isn't already open. But it's like Photoshop for free.

Hey, you're welcome! I use mspaint too sometimes, but paint.net blows it out of the water. Never tried GIMP, but sounds just like paint.net. Open source too. Could be built on the same platform.

There is an extension for Firefox and Chrome (works on all platforms) to take and manipulate screenshots of webpages, and save an optimized picture all in one step.

Its named like Harry Potter's quidditch broom!
