Title: Lil help? Flag related
Post by: Disgruntled-Geisha on July 10, 2007, 11:21:57 AM

Hi, if someone could resize my flag so I can upload it I'd really appreciate it.

I can't seem to get it to 10kb

Thanks!

Here you go, dearie.  :)  I just used an image program that involves a lot of data loss during the re-size process - try a really low-quality program like MS Paint and you should have no problem trimming file sizes.

Ahh, thank you Allama!  I also tried it myself on MSPaint and it did the trick.

There are various things that help decrease the filesize.  I'm certainly no expert on it.  But reducing the number of colors in the palette is one way.  You might lose a bit of picture quality that way, but some images aren't all that adversely affected.  Just takes some experimenting, really.

save in PNG then open with Paint and save in JPG, works for me.
