pman860507 Pillar of the Community United States 784 Posts	Posted 12/28/2011 11:49 am if your camera has different quality settings you need to bump up the quality. if not then you can change the image size in Photoshop but it might be blurry. Report this Post to the Staff
timsumrall Pillar of the Community United States 1256 Posts	Posted 12/28/2011 1:11 pm Set your camera to maximum mega-pixels (mine goes to 12m) and set the quality to Fine. This should result in a larger image of the cent (kind of like zooming in). Then crop your image to just larger than the cent. Next, resize down to 800 or 600 pixels it you need to. For a smaller file size, save as jpg at 90% compression. Report this Post to the Staff
BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19935 Posts	Posted 12/28/2011 11:26 pm What Tim said...I used PaintShopPro to resize my pics. It's cheap and excellent software, well worth the money This old version 7 works GREAT on any Windows OS, it's what I'm using: http://www.ebay.com/itm/JASC-Paint-...em3cc03449d4 Lincoln Cent Lover!

BadThad Bedrock of the Community United States 19935 Posts	Posted 12/28/2011 11:32 pm My cam is only 6MP and the largest size for me is 2816x2112. That resolution usually works out well for me. I can usually just tell PSP to resize to 800x600 and I'm done. If I'm not lazy and I crop, 800x800 but it usually calls for a couple more downsizes to fit under 100k. I should also mention, you can use the forum resize tool. Lincoln Cent Lover! VERDI-CARE™ INVENTOR https://verdi.care/ Report this Post to the Staff
