Paintshop Art!

Post by The Rob »

This may go nowhere, but I thought it might be fun to see others' attempts to render something with a paintshop program and post them here. Most Windows-based computers have the program, I believe. No experience necessary, just do it. Person, place, or thing, it matters not.



Amazingly, I've managed to render a self-portrait that looks nothing like me, living or, uh, undead.

Your turn!

I've tried drawing with a mouse. It's really hard.

When I get to my scanner again I'll manipulate some of them in a program but don't know if I can do much from scratch.

I got SerifPhotoPlus for free online and it's pretty good. Don't know what site it came from though.

I assume you refer to the size of the file rather than the size of the talent represented. :rolleyes:

I'll have to experiment with my graphics program to see if I can reduce them. Apparently some kind soul has already down-sized my first offering. Thank you!

You need a program like Irfanview (free) then open it in irfanview after you save it and find the "resize" option and change the dimensions.

The first one is still the same size, just made into an attachment instead of a straight [IMG] tag

I have Irfanview, so I figured that would do; just wasn't sure how it would approach a .bmp file. Thanks. :)

Perhaps the attachment option is the easiest. I'll try it with my next masterpiece.
