Yep, too big, but when I shrink it, the detail goes away. I used photostudio to change it to a jpeg. Maybe I need to go back to paint and shrink it, then change to jpeg. Jeez.

 

[fishman]

When I shrink it, I lose all the detail. What's the deal?

 

[fishman]

I'm going for it again.

 

[fishman]

Success! Thanks for your help guys.

Nice work fishman, now when are you going to trade that wheelbarrow in on a tractor? Does the <font color=green>color</font color=green> of your wheelbarrow provide any clues to your preferences?

Harv,

Seems like those near and dear to us just have no sense of humor! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif Although if I could get paid for all the time I spend monitoring this site it would supplement my retirement down the road!/w3tcompact/icons/blush.gif

Excellent, Fishman! /w3tcompact/icons/laugh.gif

I am humbled by the artistic talent that is showing up on this board.

Yeah, I guess you noticed the challenge of creating miniature artwork for computer viewing. In my professional days, I was constantly at odds with upper management, mostly the marketing department, who insisted that I make "icons" out of all the various logos they wanted to show up on the screen. An icon, at least in the Mac world, is defined as a 32 x 32 pixel image. I had the devil's own time creating icons that even vaguely resembled some of the complex artwork they dumped on me. Then they were pissed 'cuz I didn't include the company's slogan in the same space. /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif

I see a trend of signature picts getting larger and larger. Eventually this could get to be a problem if it starts to affect download time and/or viewability. I'm sure if it gets to that point, Muhammad will issue some guidelines. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

I know where you're coming from, Fishman. My own signature history went from "no tractor" --

, to "waiting for tractor" --

, and finally the one I'm using now.

I hope yours evolves quickly. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

 

[Muhammad]

Yes, guidelines will soon be issued. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

 

[fishman]

Harv, I sure hope it doesn't take too long either. I remember when you were looking for a tractor. Even though I wasn't a member at the time, I followed along with a great deal of interest. I recently saw an L2500 at a rental store near me and they are quite a bit bigger than I thought.

Rob, the color of the wheelbarrow in my signature is the same color (mostly) as the one I am actually using. /w3tcompact/icons/tongue.gif I am currently leaning toward a Kubota in the 7500/2410 class,but am open to suggestions. I will certainly seek more advice as the time draws closer. Last weekend I moved a couple of tons of boulders out of my (soon to be) yard and would have jumped right on a Kioti, Mitsubishi, whatever. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

You're looking at the extent of my artistic talent. I had a grandmother, and I have daughters, who do some mighty pretty oil paintings, and with a little luck and a lot of care, I can sometimes draw a straight line with a ruler./w3tcompact/icons/frown.gif

fishman, after moving those rocks, you are going to be so happy to have a tractor. We had a family rock picking outing last year on our property using the FEL as our wheelbarrow. Picked at least 5 bucketfuls which would have been countless wheelbarrowfuls. The tractor made the project a fun day instead of a miserable "task". My wife had so much fun dumping the rocks on the pile, I didn't think I'd ever get "my" tractor back /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Although I'm partial to <font color=green>green</font color=green>, it really doesn't matter. They're all a big step up from a wheelbarrow /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Jim,
You look cold out there,and if thats a mustache that you have would that be frost and ice on it....brrrr. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

Stay warm.

Thomas..NH /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

 

[Harv]

Looking good, Jim! /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

Just remember that whatever pict you use, it's going to get smooshed into a box that's 65 pixels wide and 75 pixels tall, so unless you want distorted results, you're better off starting with those exact dimensions. /w3tcompact/icons/wink.gif

Can you tell me why my signature is not showing up? Do I need to send it as an attachment with each post. I checked and it is correctly labeled and linked from where I have it posted online. HELP!!

 

[Harv]

Your signature's showing up just fine for me, Richard. /w3tcompact/icons/smile.gif

The same image is not a good candidate for your profile picture, though. It's like, totally the wrong size and shape. /w3tcompact/icons/crazy.gif

 

[cowboydoc]

YEP! I am working on downsizing and reshaping that signature!! haha! Was concerned earlier that it wasn't showing up at all. I see now that it is...wonders never cease! Thanks!

Harv,
How come I see the signature but the profile picture is just a box with a red X, and yes I am on a MAC.
