    For example if I make a sig using airbrushing only, how will changing the resolution affect it? Will it actually look better or not really?

    changing the resolution is just adding more dpi (dots per inch), the higher the dpi, the better the image quality.
    basically it will give you a clearer image (high dpi 300+)

    so basically resolution can only lower the image quality from what you see on your screen when working with an image from defaults right?

    but you can only see about 72 dpi on internet stuff

    its when you're printing that a higher res will look alot higher quality

    how do you actually change the resolution of an image say, you want to change 800x600 image to a 1024x768 image. how do you increase the resolution by not manually resizing the image?

    heh, changing the revolution.

    Btw, take the check out of "resample image" (I think thats the option) and it doesn't change the actual size of the pic.
