Hello Sailor!

I have a problem with my full sized image or jpg (after conversion).I do not use hi-res mode when it does not work,to get a shot from Ctrl+F11 no problem,but to increase the resolution to such a good image,fit to upload a screenshot of Subsim seems to be difficult,I use different screen sizes and range from 19-23 even if it now plays no role,is grateful for the responses that lead to lasting change and solution

Note:Possibly this thread would be posted under the heading SH3.

Imageshack can resize images when you upload them.

I just run them through Gimp, tho you have to do them by hand (well, type in the size)

so stop at 1024x768 which is therefore preferable, the picture is pretty small,or should I edit before uploading?

I myself usualy select the pictures I want to use. open them and resize in Gimp, then upload them to Imageshack/photobucked.

Sorry bud but resizing the picture of it won't make it any bigger in reality. 1024x768 is still four inches.
