New Arctic E91 in the house......................

E24 · 03-22-2006, 09:57 PM

I finally have the car - have had it for 2 weeks. Too many ill family members to count (son included). Just started taking pics and the camera died. I will have a full batch this weekend and hope that the moderators will be kind and allow them to stay on the main board before transferring. Funny thing. The only pic that made it is a high corner tail shot of the blacklines installed on the Arctic E91. I will post this as a teaser for Led Zep. The tinted uppers are made for this color. More to come. Thanks for everyones help. You made this process so easy.

Can I reply to my own message? I guess I can. Give me decent dimensions for my BIG POST so they don't look so idiotic on the board. Thanks.

matt0528 · 03-22-2006, 10:06 PM

try 640 x 480

BMW0 · 03-22-2006, 10:11 PM

Way too big pics, do what matt0528 suggests.

Nikki · 03-22-2006, 10:13 PM

It doesn't stretch my screen.

1600 x 1200

That's pretty low.

Nikki · 03-22-2006, 10:23 PM

it's necessary when you're working with large images in photoshop

fideba · 03-23-2006, 02:03 AM

1920x1200 on my laptop... Sweet !

LEDZEP · 03-23-2006, 05:12 AM

E24 - Congratulations bro! That is quite a teaser photo, and it does look nice! Sorry to hear that your son is still ill. I was just thinking about sending you a PM to ask how he is doing when I saw this post.

As for photo size, I always tell myself that size doesn't matter

but it's going to depend on the screen resolution of various viewers. Sounds like Nikki and others have those young eagle eyes that can tolerate 1,000,000 x 1,000,000 pixel size. I generally size my photos to no more than 1000 pixels at the largest edge. I think most people have their resolution high enough so that it doesn't require horizontal scrolling (that's where it gets annoying).

I resized your photo to 900xwhatever....

davinet78 · 03-23-2006, 06:00 AM

make the pics smaller

homerfromathens · 03-23-2006, 10:06 AM

...using DELL 24 inch LCD 1920 x 1200

noflash · 03-23-2006, 11:14 AM

What do you use to resize?

noflash · 03-23-2006, 11:14 AM

Oh, and congrats on your new car. Pan out!

Gitta · 03-23-2006, 12:46 PM

Congrats! I resize down to 800x600 for the poor souls on dial-up.

Lost Rider · 03-23-2006, 06:12 PM

People with dial-up have no business on the Internet.
