Hyper Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Ever had that moment when you find that perfect avatar? Then of course you realize its too big. Maybe if we had a resizing feature in the avatar selection everyone could use the image they want without having to use HTML or a complicated art program. Especially now since everyone can have a custom avatar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 [color=indigo]Go to [url]www.irfanview.com[/url] and download IrfanView. It's freeware, it's easy to use, it has a ton of cool stuff it can do (including resizing images quite easily), and you can download plug-ins for it that let you view just about any type of image or movie file. All in all, it's just a cool little program that I use all the time for viewing and editing images. So, yeah, if you need to resize an image for your avatar, just download it and resize it with that. If you ever do anything else with images, you'll probably find that it comes in handy. Especially for converting from one file type to another. It has a feature which converts all of the image files in a folder to a format of your choosing. So, if you have a ton of jpgs that you want in gif format, you can convert them with just a couple clicks. Okay, I've rambled on enough, lol. It's just that it's a really cool little program. :)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SunRiZe Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Desbreko, does irfanview animate gif's as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Semjaza Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 It plays and views just about any type of media file in existance. It's a must download for anyone in my opinion. Sometimes it's layout is a real pain though. I had lost it... thanks for the link :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desbreko Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 [color=indigo]Do you mean, like, does it show the animation of a gif when you view it? If so, yes, it does.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desbreko Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 [color=indigo]No, as far as I know, you can't make animated gifs with it. It's not really for making images, though, it's more for viewing and editing them. For making animated gifs, I use Animation Shop.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MathGuy2 Posted September 27, 2002 Share Posted September 27, 2002 Paintbrush (Paint) can resize images, go to Image|Stretch and Skew. Unfortunately, you can't resize to a pixel, but just divide your wanted pixels by current pixels to get the percentage. Some versions of Paint can save to GIFs and/or JPEGs. (Does anyone know what controls this ability?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
