The mechanics of it are described in detail over in the how-to forum, but it boils down to being able to read the floppy. If you can either edit it there or move it to your hard-drive to trim/resize it as necessary it's no different from however you got the one you're currently using to work...

Not till I get a certain paper......

i have no way of resizing it as i dont have adobe or something similar. i can get it onto my hard drive no problem. ( i only knew how to scan it in when i was at a friends house earlier

[Merelan]

If you open it up on your hard drive - what programe does it open in ?

If you are using a current windows package it should use Microsoft photo editor

Just go into image / resize / and reduce it by 20% or more - might take a few trial and errrors I think the largest you can have is 150 x 150 pixels

Then resave the new sixe and bobs your uncle

if i go to my computer and open it from the a drive it just opens up the pic but not in microsoft package.

is window 98 to old.

i think i need to swallow a computer how to book

Have you tried asking this on the HowTo board?
Maybe someone over there can help.

 

[wizbit9]

they are all asleep over that way., but i've left a thread anyhow

i have managed to resize it on a hp imaging package i have but can't convert it to a jpeg file

 

[Pixie]

So what format is it in now?

 

[RawHumor]

Do you have Winzip? You could post it as a zip file.

 

[wizbit9]

unfortunately no i dont.

i have it as a tif file and a bmp file

 

[Mischka]

Can you e-mail it as an attachment? I can resize it for you.

I forgot - myschka34@hotmail.com.

 

[wizbit9]

your a star

thanks

 

[Mischka]

I got it and I'm working on it now.

 

[wizbit9]

thanks

love your av. really encapsulating but still mysterious

the eyes have seen a million things it looks like (yours ?)

 

[Mischka]

Here's the first version. I cleaned up the edges a bit so the image stands out more.

 

[Mischka]

Here's the full body version.

Thanks for the compliment, but the av's not me. It's Katzen, the Human Cat. She's got a surgically implanted tail, elongated eyes, and now she also has whiskers, I believe. I sold her husband (the Enigma) a pair of glasses many years ago. They were both very nice people.

 

[Mischka]

Here's the third version. Not much different from the first one I posted, but I cleaned up the right side a bit more.

 

[Mischka]

If you need me to work on it any more, just PM me.
