I have a question. Places like up-loadit, villagephotos, etc. won't let me upload certain pics, they say only gif & jpg, any others have to be converted. How do you do that? Are there any other websites that allow you to upload other types of pics? I just got a scanner & scanned 1 of my drawings, & its a psf

It surprises me that they don't allow PNG, it's one of the best. But they generally have this filter to keep people from uploading BMP, PCX, and other uncompressed formats that take up a huge amount of space. One of my favorite conversion programs is Pictview. It can convert between dozens of formats and can view almost anything.

Open it up and then find the file you want to convert (if you're not sure where it is, then put the picture in the same folder as the program before opening it). Then highlight the file and press F2 for a list of formats you can convert to.

When you use Save As... a picture, can you save it as a different format?, since you said psf, do you have PhotoImpression? cause you can save it as a gif, jpg, bmp as well as psf

I never heard of psf being a graphics format. All my playstation musics are saved in psf and minipsf format (sometimes 2 things share the same extension). What were you able to save psf as? Can it save as anything else? I read from the site that Pictview can open psd files but I don't have any to test that on. Is psd and psf closely related maybe?

PhotoImpression has their pics in psf format, cause i have it and thats what their format of pics usually have, but if you save it as you can save as any other format

Yea ArcSoft makes PhotoImpression also so thats their format for pics...... well when you go Save As.... the drop down box says..... Do JPEG.(Of Course i use Cream lol) If youre on AOL tis pic looks like fuzzy crap. Use IE or Netscape.

*hands Marik a cookie* I've got another problem, its taking forever for villagephotos to upload my drawing, is that normal? And when freewebs uploaded it, it also took a long time & I think it said something about the size? Could the size be what's taking so long & what's keeping it from working where ever I try to upload it?... I'll give you another cookie if you can help me figure this one out, too. And this one's got frosting & sprinkles! lol

It might screw up if its too big especially a dialup connection like me. I use www.Uploadit.org you have to sign up but i used fake names etc. just remember your username and password. And I better get that damn cookie!

Yeah, I have dialup, too. And I just can't stand the madness of waiting. Uploadit is giving me the same trouble. Would making it smaller help? And how would I do that?

Smaller will def help. It won't take that long, cause the longer it loads it will stop after like a few minutes and you dont get anything.

Ok, I've got another question. What's a good code to use on freewebs to make a bunch of images float all over the screen? I've got cupcakes & doughnuts for whoever helps me this time.

I've never written one of these scripts on my own (they can be distracting) but there's plenty around. Do a google search for "javascript snow effects" and you'll find a ton. If you don't know HTML and/or your freewebs account is set to simple, you can't edit the HTML of a page to insert it.

I think my account is set up simple. So, you think it would be too distracting? I kinda thought so, too. Its no big deal, though. Well, thanks for the info anyway, XFox.

[glow=purple,2,300]samller helps, also what you save it as. Example: this pic in bitmap format takes 150 kb while in jpg form its only 30 kb. Gif it takes 30.8 kb.[/glow]

Open it and Save As and on the drop box, it says .bmp (24-Bit Bitmap) or something and you can choose alot of different types like .jpg .gif etc

I could really use some fan stuff, please send me some. Stories, drawings, comics, etc. I'd really appreciate it. I'll give you credit & link to your site (if you have one). And how can I make my site more appealing? I'm trying to give it that "enchanted forest" fantasy, peacful, serene, calm, nature look. And the color scheme I'm going with is purple & green. I'd like to color the scroll bar, but I don't know if I should color it purple or green. I've thought about having leaves float down from the top of the screen, too. And having it where a pic looks normal but when you mouse over, it slowly fades away, but I can only find scripts for the exact opposite. I feel my site needs something more, but I'm not sure what. I still have those cupcakes & doughnuts, & I'll even throw in a chaos emerald generator & actual chunks of the master emerald it self, if you help me & send me stuff.

Hmm best uploader? So far I have used FTP and its sooo much better than using Geocites. Ever since I started to write html my page seems more meaningful even though its nowhere near done yet. I am doing my best with the pictures. I need a banner and another picture for the homepage. Anyone care to help me? (It says pictures so I came here for help. I know how to make .gifs but I don't know how to make transparent animations.) Site: phoenix.samuke.net/tails/home.htm
