Adjusting size and resolution question!

I'm trying to adjust size/resolution of a collage that I created so that it will look good when printed on a 20 X 30 canvas. How do I know the proper size and resolution to change it to?

We don't even know what program you are referring to, so it will be impossible to advise. In any case, usage questions are best asked in the product specific forums.

Image size and resolution question.

Is an image at W 48.667 x H 32.444 inches at 72 res the same as an image that I could convert in photoshop to 300 res and then the with "Resample Image" clicked off would be W 11.68 x H 7.78 at 300 res for printing purposes? I'm asking this questions because after exporting 200 images from Lightroom 1.4, putting them into an wedding album I realized the images were not at 300 res but the first size listed above. I'm trying not to have to rebatch and have to put them back into the album. I sent the question to NAPP and got this back"
"If you do the math you'll see that the answer is "no."
48x72=3456 pixels; 32x72=2304 pixels
11.68x300=3504 pixels; 7.78x300=2334 pixels."
I did the math and it comes up to 5760 vs 5830. Pretty darn close. So would an image printed out with both settings print the about the same quality or am I missing something?
Thanks
Bob

Bob's question is a common one. And one of the first that most of us struggled to understand. Let's see if I can shed some light to help clarify the matter.
o The image starts out with a given number of pixels from the camera, scanner, or whatever was its source. The resolution only matters when it comes time to print the image.
72 dpi was once a common resolution for displaying on a computer monitor. Today 90 dpi is more common monitor resolution.
o Let's assume that the image is 3504 x 2336 pixels (which I got from his size @ 72 dpi).
o In "image size", if you do _not_ have 'resample image' checked, all you are doing is _rescaling the image. The image resolution is whatever you enter ...
For example, if you enter 360 dpi -- the native printing resolution of many Epson printers -- you get a print size of 9.733 x 6.489 inches
o Let's say you want to print this image at 360 dpi in portrait on 13 x 19 inch paper with a one inch border on the sides. That would make the short dimension of the image 11 inches and the long would work out to 16.5.
To do that you need to _resample_ the image to change the size. More pixels will be made. The resolution stays at 360 dpi. So check the 'resample image' box.
After resampling to get the print size and resolution you want, the pixel dimension goes to 5960 x 3960 (from 3504 x 2336). Those new pixels came at a price, but that is a matter for another thread and a lot of personal bias.
Hope that helped.
P.S. The answer to your question, Bob, is yes. With resample off in PhotoShop, your original images should have gone to 11.68 x 7.787 inches @300 dpi.
In looking at the rest of your original post, it seems that the export didn't work the way that you wanted. Do I read right that the images turned out to be 11.68 x 7.787 @ 72 dpi? Can't help with that as I don't do Lightroom.

How do you change the image size and resolution in photoshop everytime I change the width the height changes my measurements will not stay

Can someone assist me with changing image size and resolution. each time I change the width the height changes and vice/versa?

There's a chain link between width and height. The point is to keep the aspect ratio the same, otherwise your picture would get stretched.
You click on the chain-link to shut that off and you can adjust width and height separately.
Also could you give us your version of Photoshop, what OS you are running it on (Windows 7 for example) and what exactly you want to do with your document?
Resolution is the print term for how many pixels will be printed on an inch of paper. It doesn't apply if your image is intended for screen viewing.

Best Size and Resolution to Scan Photos?

Hi, I need to create a photo slide show in iMovie. I would do it iPhoto but I need to able to time my music and add intermittent titles so I guess I'll need to use iMovie. I'm very new to iMovie and actually am used to editing on Avid and Media 100 (which I no longer have access to) so I'm a little scared! So, my question is - when I scan my photos what is the best size and resolution to scan them at for the best final results? It will be viewed on a TV from a DVD. Any other tips for a newbie also appreciated. Thanks so much! -Julie
p.s. I'm using iMovie HD but I'm on a G4 so don't have HD capabilites. Not sure if that matters.

Original Size and Resolution (How do I access that file)

If you go to your photo album and click 'veiw larger image' you receive this message:
Note: This picture may be displayed smaller than the actual picture size. The original uploaded image size and resolution are preserved in your account.
The same question was posted with a solution to send the photo to your e-mail account. The does not resolve my problem. I should be able to access the original size and resolution here, online, in my account.

You should be able to sign in to your account with Adobe to retrieve the serial number. Then download version 7 from here:
Download Photoshop Elements products | 9, 8, 7
Worst case option:
Download the trial version of Photoshop Elements 13:
Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 Direct Download Links, Premiere too | ProDesignTools
and save it as a tiff or jpeg and you can open it with any photo viewer.
You may even find that you want to buy the latest version.

How to find the size and resolution option in the aspect ratio drop down menu for the crop tool

while looking through certain tutorials on the new crop system i came across many that referenced the above mentioned size and resolution option in the access ratio drop down menu. They all mention a dialog box which then appears which looks really useful, however my version doesnt have this option. any help would be appreciated.

John, are there already differences? I thought 13.1 was mainly about retina display support, but I guess there would also be other fixes released while they were at it.
Yes, definitely already differences. I sympathize with Photoshop instructors (online and offline).
The headline change was Retina support but that was also made available to non-Cloud versions.
Other Cloud-only changes in 13.1 are listed here

Circular and oval cropping at set size and resolution?

I know how to use the M tool to create circles and ovals and i know you can set that to certain dimensions, but that doesn't do everything I need.
How do you crop circles and ovals out of a photo, at a set size (for example, a 1 inch circle ) at a set resolution for printing? What I need to do is crop circular and oval images out of a photo, say at 250 dpi, then paste them onto a blank white page for printing.
So if I've got let's say a photo that's 14x10 inches at 300dpi, I want to be able to go in, crop out an oval or circle, with as much or as little of the photo that I can or want to, setting that automatically to a certain dimension and dpi, then paste it into a blank white page I've already created at that same d
When finished I'd have maybe 20 or 30 images on a page that I can flatten all the layers and print.
I can't find a way to set size and resolution with anything other than the regular square crop tool.

You can make an action and use it as one step automation to achieve that on an initial selection.
Step by step instructions:
With the Elliptical Marquee Tool, make the desired selection on a image.
Open the Actions panel (Window > Actions (Alt+F9), from its menu at the top right or corresponding buttons at the bottom, choose New Action, and in the dialog that appears press the Record button.
From the Image menu, choose Crop.
From the Selection menu, choose Inverse (Ctrl+Shift+I)
Press the d key on your keyboard to reset the foreground/background color swatches.
Press Ctrl + Delete keys on your keyboard to fill with white.
From the Image menu, choose Image Size (Ctrl+Alt+I), make sure the Resample Image is checked, and in the Document Size section enter the desired dimensions and resolution and press OK.
In the Actions Panel press the Stop Recording button.
Now you can copy or drag the image to another image.
For the next image make the oval selection, go to the Actions panel, select the actions you created above, and press the play button. You can also create a keyboard shortcut in the action's property accessible by double clicking the action.
The creation of this action assumes that in the final image you will be composing oval images on white background without overlapping their rectangular bounding boxes. If you plan to overlap them then the action must be modified to make the image a transparent layer and delete outside the oval instead of filling with white.

Image Sizes and Resolution standards?

are there any standards for image sizes and resolution for mobile games specifically: backgrounds and backdrops?
i will be porting my game for various cell phones and i'd like to resize images to fit perfect on all cell phone screens, so what would be the best way to do this and what should my image attributes (height, width) be?
i've tried researching on google to see if there were any standards and couldn't seem to find any. if these standards are non-existent what image sizes have you used that you found worked best on various mobile phones?
thanks
Edited by: sassy on Jun 2, 2008 1:49 PM

Google's right, there are no real standards for screen sizes. Some are more common than others, but there are dozens of common screen sizes.
The most common are...
176x208 (same as 176x220, but with no status bar)
240x320
176x220
[Getjar resolution stats|http://www.mobref.com/statistics/world/gDispResolution]
Unfortunately, many phones are slightly more or slightly less than those. If you cover those, you're fairly well off though. If you can make your game resolution independent, that's your best option, though with intricate overlays it may be nearly impossible to do.

PSE 4 -Best Size and Resolution for Burning to a DVD?

I would like to burn a slideshow that is playable on most DVD-players from about 80 RAW files. I plan to "Author" (correct term?) it with Roxio's Easy Media Creator which, I believe, makes an MPEG-4.
Correct me, but I beleive PS Elements 4.0 only makes PDFs or WMV slidehsows. So I have to burn the DVD using another utility.
To what image size and resolution should I reduce my RAW files, so that they can be shown on standard (not HD) television sets?

Hello All,
Please can anyone advise on the recommended photo size and resolution to be used to provide the highest quality photo available on the infotype header ? Also, if there is a difference to use the photo format BMP or JPEG ?

All information or experiences of photo size and/or resolution used will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
This is not completely true regarding the format.

Scanning a 35mm slide film and trying to get it a certain image size and resolution

Hi All,
I am using the Nikon Super CoolScan8000 and Vuescan program to scan a slide film. I am scanning at this setting: scan resolution 4000 dpi. I have to make it a certain dimension that someone has been asking me for. They want the image at Width = 60cm (approx. 23 inches) and 300 dpi.
When I scan at 4000 dpi, I'm not sure what size to make the printed width. I have experimented numerous times and I've had no luck with getting exactly what I want. It seems that when I make the width 60 cm (the height adjusts proportionately) and the dpi at 300, the quality is not that great, which it definitely needs to be because it will be printed at a large size.
Someone please help ASAP!
Thank you!
PS I am using Adobe Photoshop CS3 and I also have Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

You can only get 228 ppi out of the end product. That should be good enough.

Size and resolution of web gallery

Hello,
I have inserted a web gallery via a web widget and would like to adjust the size of the slideshow thumbnail and resolution of the images within the slideshow, is this possible?
The slideshow thumbnail is quite small and I understand that you can open the thumbnails for the enlarged images; however, I would like to enlarge the thumbnails by 1.5 times if possible.
Regarding the resolution, it seems like the images within the web gallery are pixelated, is there a way to fix this?
Thank you for your help,
grodr

grodr:
Another solution would be to add one of the photos in the web gallery to your page, size it to your specifications and then link it to the web gallery's URL in the Inspector/Link pane.
