    When I have been looking though renders I have been seeing that people have very large Pictures. What is the best way to make them smaller without distorting them? My sigs have to be 300/150 caz of the doggy form I use.

    Do you people just use some of the pic?


    Oh yeah yes I do needs a SIG!!!!

    been a long time since we got this question...

    you cut out the image then resize it linking the width and height so the proportions are respected, otherwize you get a squashed render..

    if you use photoshop and resize using the mouse,
    hold shift while dragging the corner, that will link the dimensions.

    to get a sig made go to "the marketplace" and post with [REQ] in the title

    welcome

    I have been having a bit of a problem with this myself. Whenever I resize my render to put it in a sig. I drag the resized version into the sig but the image is the normal size. Not the size I resized it to.

    if u use free transform hold shift while downsizing so it doesn't get distorted

    Image>Image size, than change the width and the height changes accordingly. Thats the easiest way, and is more precise than free transform.
