Trouble with image size

Hello everyone, I'm having some trouble with image sizes.
I created a 977x5000 px image at 72 PX/inch resolution with text for use on a weebly website.
When created the image looks like a small vertical bar(maybe around 50x500px) with a massive left and right photoshop background(not the image background). so if I drag the bottom slider to the left or right the image will completely disappear. I can CTR and + to get it to the correct size so I can actually read the text. I can still go very far left and right with bottom slider. The problem comes in when I save it to a PNG or other file it still shows up as a bar.
Is there any way to fix this so it saves it as the correct viewing size? that way when I open the image it's an actual 977x5000 instead of looking like a 50x500
I'm on Windows 7, my display settings are at 100% and I'm using Photoshop CC 2014

You do not understand what is going on at all. First an image file's PX/inch resolution setting is meaningless when it come to the Web and displays all that is meaningful is pixels. For displays are run at one resolution usually their native manufactured Pixel resolution so your image will be displayed at 96DPI on Desktop Displays and a 300+DPI on Phones and around 250DPI on tablets. Your image height is also to large to fit on any display. The Display I think that displays the most pixels is the IBM T221 22.2" LCD 16:10 aspect ratio 3840px by 2400px. at 204DPI. Rotating that display to portrait it can display an image with a height of 3840px your image height is larger 5000. Your image has an aspect ratio in the neighborhood of 1:5 an image 50x500 has an aspect ratio of 1:10 a far cry from 1:5 your image is much wider then 1:10.

Trouble with image sizes....

I have a freelance job where I am creating a few simple animations for a digital menu board for a Dairy Queen. I am having trouble with the size of my stage translating to the proper size on the LCD monitor. Is there a trick for making the conversion? The stage is huge and in writing is way bigger but still comes up smaller when viewed on the monitor. The monitor we are using is 768 x 1366 (or 15.5” x 27.5”) and my stage is 5100px x 7688px ( or 70"x106"). So you would think the flash file would be huge but it is too small by about 4in?!?!
--Matt--

those aspect ratios are different. to fill the screen, you will need to make a descision to leave space at the top/bottom, crop your stage width or distort your stage.
you can publish for 100%x100% and use the scaleMode property of the stage to select your option.

Having trouble with image size on new HP2311x display with 4 year old MacBook. Image too small. Do I have to stay in mirror mode? I have messed with OSD and Image Control menus on display and have gotten nowhere. Help?

Have just installed new HP 2311x display withe 4 year old MacBook. VGA cable. In mirror mode, at high resolution of 1920x1080, image size on HP display is too small. How can I get it to fill screen? If not in mirror mode, the display looks good, only I can't get the top menu bar (tried to drag it) nor the rest of the desktop. Help?

Problems with image sizes

There seems to be lots of confusion about image sizes and Apple iBookstore Support et al simply state that images should not be greater than 2 megapixels.
IBook Author Help > Photos and other images, states:-
Important: When you export your book for distribution outside the iBookstore, images are automatically scaled to a width of 2048 pixels, which is optimized for iPad with Retina display. Readers can view these images on other iPad models, but the viewing experience might be slower. You can improve the viewing experience on iPad models without Retina display by using images no wider than 1024 pixels.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5117 states:-
Publishing to the iBookstore:
If most of your readers will be using the original iPad, scale down images in Interactive Image widgets to a width of 2048 pixels and all other images to a width of 1024 pixels.
Previewing on iPad, or exporting for distribution outside the iBookstore:
You can improve the viewing experience on iPad models without Retina display by scaling down images in Interactive Image widgets to a width of 2048 pixels and all other images to a width of 1024 pixels.iBA help deals with exporting books OUTSIDE the store and simply advises that you can help none Retina viewers by having a smaller image. No help at all really - but suggests that the use of images 2048 is OK. that would indicate 2048 x 1536 or 1496. No mention of what resolution should be used.
iBookstore support basically reapeat this.
So to ease life in getting books accepted, should we all use 1024 x 768 @72ppi for iPad & iPad 2 and now iPad mini. ????
and use 2048 x 1536 @ ?? for The New iPad Retina display!
Both fail to mention HOW the books author would know which iPad a buyer/viewer will be using. Also if "we" only use 1024 x 768, those with Retina do not get an "enhanced viewing experience".
For a company that deals entirely with devices that use logical programming - there seems very little logic applied when it comes to dealing with a section of their business which by issueing iBA Free and wacking 30% of the top, must be adding to the $billions already stacked away in a corner somewhere.
iBA makes eBooks for use/display on iPads only. For months now since iBA became available, one of the most common requests on this forum is help with....image sizes.
It seems reasonable now when Retina is in use and eventually the iPad and iPad 2 will fade away - ditto the new none retina mini and ALL Apple devices and computers will be retina. So why not plan now! Surely images in shoudl be geared to deal with Retina displays. IF Apple would take that line maybe "Support" would have less work dealing with requests for help about images IF Apple accept that the next Stephen King may not have a clue how to deal with adjusting images sizes and simply state the required dimentions.
I make photo books and use 2048 x 1496 @150ppi - so far ten free books have gone into the store.
The suggestion about images for retina display as "standard" as been sent as feedback.

For all those who are still confused by Apples image restrictions / requirements...
In the new Template chooser after the recent updates is "Antique". This template has a Chapter background image ( the olde world print of sailing ships in blue litho print style ). This print when opened in PS is 2771 x 1506 @72ppi. 2771x1506=4,173,126 pixels.This implies Apple supply a book which does not comply with its own requirements!
Higher image resolution applied to printed photo inmages, make the image sharper. If for example you wanted to print a wall poster 45inches wide, the image needs needs a higher resolution to cater for the size, BUT the same image used for a 45" poster will print 4.5" wide print on your own printer!
iBA full page is deemed to be 1024 x 748. resolution from Apple is 72ppi. An image with those specifications will be OK in iPad & iPad 2 - but not so sharp on a Retina display especially if zoomed larger on screen
Now it seems 2048 x 1496 - double the original image size is suggested for Retina.
You can change an image in PS i.e. 1024 x 748 and change resolution to 144. PS will double the pixel size as you change the resolution. OK, just change pixel sizes back to 1024 x 748 and reolution is now 144.
That indicates a sharper image which will be suitable for retina display and in fact all current iPad models.
Today my 11th photo book was notified as available in the iBook Store, all my images were pre-formatted at 2048 x 1496 @ 150ppi. ( 2048 x 1496 = 3.063,808 pixels!)
During delivery there were no issues flagged and after delivery no tickets.
So I suggest all those folk pondering images sizes follow my example, which is now proved to be accepatble!
One thing puzzles me though, I dont use all images as full page and they can be masked down to - say - 250 x 200. Should just make an image to fit the size I want to display ??

Having trouble with image processor...help please!

HI there...First off I just bought a new iMac and haven't a clue what I'm doing so my problem could be related to that. While I'm waiting for Adobe to transfer over my platform I downloaded the trial of CS5 Extended to get me started. I'm having trouble with the image processor...I choose file/scripts/image processor...the dialog box comes up and I choose use open files and then try and choose the folder I want to save them in. I choose my folder and hit run and it keeps telling me specify folder destination. I can't for the life of me figure this out...what am I doing wrong? It always worked fine for me on my PC and CS3. I can't handle saving each image individually in the new folder...
Thanks!!

I haven't renamed anything as far as I know. I made a new folder when I hit Folder option and it's highlighted as well as the path shows up in the processor box. Just when I choose run it tells me to specify a folder. The only thing I can think of is that maybe something messed up b/c I'm copied the files and folders over from my PC but it let me save as on the mac. Also the folder I'm choosing to put them in is on the Mac harddrive. IDK...

Working with image sizes/copy and paste

I have two different jpeg files open in photoshop cs4, one is 72 ppi, 8 inches wide by 6 inches tall at 16.67% zoom. The other is about 60 inches wide by 45 inches tall, 72 ppi, at 100% zoom. I was wanting to take an element (a person) out of the 8x6 image and paste it into the 60x45 but when I do it's super small, smaller than I want it. I tried playing with the zoom and resolution but can't get two differing image sizes to match up in size. Can such a thing be done and if so, how do I do it? Thanks in advance

BTW, what is the ideal image file format for print production? I mainly use extra large JPEGs and punch in 300 for the overall resolution and so on.
300 ppi at actual size is "default" standard for book and magazine print, unless you're specifically told otherwise.
IOW, it boils down to pixel count again. Remember, resolution = pixels per inch. Think of ot as a simple equation, and like any such equation, you can calculate one if you have the two others (or let the Image Size dialog do it for you).
Resolution without a physical print size is meaningless, an "empty" figure.
As for file format, you can't go wrong with TIFF, lossless and cross-platform, and with support for anything you might conceivably want to put into the file. But jpeg is usually accepted in a pinch (e.g. if you have to mail them).

Issue with image size on overwrite edits.

This is likely a simple question but for some reason, likely sleep deprivation, I can't figure it out. I have a video sequence of a lecture that I am trying to overlay with a Keynote presentation (Quicktime H.264). I have the lecture video (DV capture) on track one and am doing simple overwrite edits on track two with transitions in and out. This worked perfectly while working on my laptop all night last night. Now I have began the same process with a second lecture (exact same file formats/image sizes as the previous) on my desktop system but when I perform the overwrite edits the video image does not fill the screen and the lecture footage on track one is visible behind the video on track two. I would like to have the video fill the screen. I even tested the same footage I used on the laptop on the desktop and have the same problem.
I am sure there is a setting somewhere that is different but I can't figure it out. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Scroll over in the browser and look at three things: image pixel dimensions of the keynote stuff, the video stuff and the sequence.
If they're not all the same, there's your problem.

Importing Multi-Page PDF. Problems with Image Size Changing.

I am working with CS4 on Windows XP.
This has happened to numerous files...
I open a multi-page PDF using PhotoShop using Grayscale. There are crop marks indicated on each page, so I will use the crop tool to crop each image accordingly. Then I convert each to a bitmap and save it as a .tiff file and close it. When I re-open the file, the image size has increased. It seems like it increases the same amount each time (maybe about 25%??) for each file.
Any suggestions on how to fix this are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm still unclear why you are bothering to open these PDF in Photoshop only to crop.
Acrobat can do this most easily. Placing the PDF files back in InDesign can also do this.
Photoshop is the last tool you'd want to use as it is rasterizing the vector elements/text and producing a larger file.
If you have neither Acrobat or InDesign, look to a free tool to crop PDF.

Help! I'm having trouble with images on my web page.

I'm trying to create a page with a bunch of my photos but I need the photos broken up into groups so I can discuss the different groups. So I simply cut and paste the photo area several times BUT now when I click on any picture in any group it only does a slideshow for the last group of photos.
I guess I could simply break the single page into multiple pages but that is so inconvenient in iWeb since it doesn't let you cut and paste template pages! Apple needs to seriously fix this shortcoming. How can you not allow cutting and pasting of pages??
Here's the page I'm having trouble with:

Thanks!
PowerBook G4 17 (A1085) 1.5 GHz / 1.5 GB RAM / 128 MB VRAM / 80 GB HD Mac OS X (10.4.2)

You probably realise by now that you're attempting to do things with iWeb which it just wasn't intended to do. Cutting and pasting the photo grid area just won't work as you want it to. To work within iWeb's limitations might i suggest that you use the 'nesting' approach described in several posts here already. Use a single representative image on your main page for each of the situations you want to cover, and link each of these to an appropriate Photo page which has 'Include page in navigation menu' unchecked.
You could add a link on each of the Photo pages which returns to your main descriptive page.

Resizing within layer? Playing with image size?

Help! I have been searching FAQs and tutorials for hours. I used to be able to click and drag an image to change it's size while in the layer without having to specify a numeric value, just simply clicking and dragging then when happy with the size double clicking. I just upgraded to CS4 and can't find that option.
Also how can I rotate just one of many layers in an image, using the rotate tool, it rotates all layers at once!

I cannot identify with your past experience in Photoshop, perhaps you were referring to some other application In Photoshop consider the following approach to both resize and rotate. Press Ctrl + T and a bounding box appears around the elements in the active layer. pull on a corner to resize, or
pull on a corner with the shift key held down to resize proportionally. If you hover just beyond the corner point you will see small curved arrows indicating the ability to rotate. Click and drag to rotate (just that layer) when the curved arrows appear. Finish off any of the above transformations by hitting enter. Hope this helps.

Trouble with ipa size after changing assets

Experiencing some really really odd issues with file size.
Cooked a development version of our app yesterday, and the IPA file came out to 596Mb. We deemed this WAY too big to be useful, so we took every image and downsized it to 72 DPI at the exact pixel dimensions and compressed with jpg as small as we could get them.
Next build of the app today, and the IPA file comes out to 822Mb...
how is this even possible!?
We reduced the file size of all our assets by almost 90% and the file size of the app INCREASES!?

Anyone have any insight on why DPS seems to be defying all logic?

Thanks very much Neil. Much appreciated.
I am unfortunately out of the office for the night, so I can't get access to the files or DPS, but I will share the folio first thing in the AM.
In the meantime though my team and I started doing some testing, as we were really concerned that the imagery in our app was what was causing the issues.
As I mentioned earlier, we had swapped much of the imagery in our app for .jpgs that are rendered at the correct pixel dimensions they appear at in the app.
We tried quickly swapping out a few of the higher res, and larger file size images for these smaller, compressed .jpgs After running the folio through DPS it seemed to impact file size very little (only dropped the file size a couple of hundred kb) - I am guessing this is due to what you were saying about DPS automatically resizing most images to 108ppi etc.
Dropping to a single orientation definitely had a major impact on the file size. (822Mb for dual vs. 540Mb for single)
Unfortunately the dual orientation is something we have been locked in to by our client.
for this particular app the client is very picky about the image quality and they have made it a requirement that the app support retina display.
Our initial tests running a 1024x768 file and upscaling on the newer iPad didn't have the best results, as the image compression and upscaling left our pixel imagery looking less than optimal.
I finally managed to find this: http://blogs.adobe.com/digitalpublishing/files/2012/03/DPS_iPad3_bestpractice.pdf
This PDF has a section on file size, and describes using a 1024x768 with images at 144ppi folio for both retina and non-retina display
Would starting with a 1024x768 file and then building a retina folio with those files drop our file size?? or would DPS scale the images up for retina and then result in a similar file size?

Problem with image size, please help!

I have spent the last week editing several photos I took for my cousin of his newborn baby (removing backgrounds/people, editing colours etc etc).
I went to get them printed but the image size is only around 800 x 400 pixles. I checked my original images from my camera and their 4000 x 3000, why are my photos once imported into photoshop suddenly being drastically reduced in size?
Really need some help here as I'm afraid I might have lost a whole weeks work as the images are now too small to get decent prints from.
Thanks,
Sacred

The pixel measurements are 3000 x 4000 when taken straight off my camera but for some reason after editing the photo its gone down to 800 x 800, this wouldnt be too much of a problem but its at a density of 300dpi where as the original pictures are at 72dpi.
I've tried my hardest to replicate the problem all afternoon going through the various stages of importing, editing and saving that I normally do and I can't get it to do it again? Really confused as to whats happened, its not the first time though I had the same problem back in 2007 after shooting someones wedding, edited a few of the photos (no cropping) then found the sizes had dropped drastically.
As far as I know I don't have any scripts, actions or image processes set up to do anything on any of my images.
When I open the file I've retouched its gone from a printable measurement of 60 x 40 inches to a printable measurement of 3 x 3 inches, this image has been extensivly cropped (just over half to 3/4) but no where near as small as 3 x 3 printable inches (I'm talking in printable size and not pixles because it can be missleading as saying the size in pixles doest equate to a physical size).
From what I can tell the image has changed size after editing and saving, I only noticed a few days later when I attempted to have the image printed that it had reduced in size so much. Which leads me to believe that the image problem must stem from the way its being saved each time??
Thanks a lot for your help and time guys

Trouble with Border Size when Printing

I am having a great deal of difficulty with border size using PSE 9 and an Epson R800. I have the latest driver for Windows 7, and still all of my photos come out with a .25" border (or greater if border is checked in the Adobe settings as well) when "borderless" is left unchecked. I have tried all possible permutations of borderless with an added border, changing print size to trick the program, but cannot get the 3mm (.125") border I am accustomed to. Can anyone figure out what I am doing wrong? Is a quarter of an inch on a 4x6 print the standard border?
Thanks in advance
Gregg

You must have been using iPhoto 6 the last time as that's not available any more. There are themes now with different border options but no continuously adjustable border width.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Trouble with image restore on dreamweaver cs3

I am a GoLiver trying to learn Dreamweaver. I am having a problem with image restore on the rollover. Here is the url
http://www.allthegills.com/meadowcroftweb
Not sure where I went wrong.
Thanks for any help.

The onmouse over and out need to go in your href tag. You have them in your img tag. Should look like this
<a href="index.html" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('index','','images/img_over.gif',1)"><img src="images/img.gif" alt="whatever" name="index" /></a>

Trouble with header size....

Hey,
I am having trouble getting rid of a gap at the top of my header/banner
The attached picture shows what i am talking about: if you look above the photo on the left, you will see a black gap that i cannot get rid of.   I want the picture to go all the way to the top of the page
How do i do this?
sorry for the simple question, but i just can't work it out

You have h2 tags (head text size 2) around the image at the top of the page.
   <h2><img src="logo%20black.jpg" alt="ken logo" width="1000" height="200">
      
</h2>
They are adding an extra 18px drop above the image. Header tags are block tags, which means (partly) that they come with extra space (margin) above and below). Taking the h2 tags off moves the image back up. Then you can go to the css and make the header div 200px tall (the height of the photo) instead of 218px, and the whole thing will tighten up.
.twoColLiqLtHdr #header {
    font-family: "MS Serif", "New York", serif;
    background-color: #000;
    background-position: 0px;
    height: 200px;
    position: relative;
    padding-top: 0px;
    padding-right: 0px;
    padding-bottom: 0px;
