Graphics size for use in Muse

Hi
I am new to muse, and have a question. I have watched the great training videos at lynda.com, but it leaves me wit one question though.
When I place graphics, I know I can scale it to lets say 50% inside Muse. I could also scale it inside Photoshop and then placed the smaller graphics at 100% inside Muse. I understand that it is much easier to resize inside Muse, instead of doing it in Photoshop maybe several times before it has the exact size, but will the quality of a resize / resample inside Muse be as good as if it was done in Photoshop?
Thanks for any input

Hello,
Scaling/resizing the images in Muse compromises it's quality (for example, increasing the size may pixelate the image), which is the major reason why most choose to scale or resize the images in Photoshop. There would be a difference in the image quality and it is hence, better to scale the image in Photoshop, from the quality perspective.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

  • How do I change the font and graphic size when using Firefox

    I have recently switched from Windows to Mac. When resizing the window in Mac the font and graphic size do not follow -- they stay the same size and only more "white space" is created by increasing the window size. How do I get the graphics and fonts to adapt to the new window size or at least make the whole image bigger. I am using Firefox 3.6.12 and Mac OS10.6.5. Thanks for the help.

    You can select to zoom the full page or only the text: View > Zoom > Zoom Text Only<br />
    Firefox 3 can remember the zoom level site specific.

  • Open multiple PDFs in Photoshop at specific size for use with Actions

    I am having a bit of a roadblock with batch Automate in Photoshop. I'd like to open multiple PDFs at 630p x 630p, 72 dpi in greyscale. I have 2000 files to do this on. If files are already open, the rest of my action works, does a few things, then saves for web as PNG. It is just the open which is not working. It tries to give all files the same filename. Taking the filename out of the Action is not an option. Scan of msg boards say that this feature stopped working around CS3. Any ideas? Much appreciated.

    Open opens images the same size and resolution they are saved. If you want the images to be a particular size you need to do that in the action.
    If you download my crafting actions package.  You will find the there are over a dozen scripts I wrote to be used with in action.  One is a plugin script that would be particularly helpful to you to do the resize you want to do.  The first three steps would be Step 1 menu File>Automate>AspectRatioSelection....  You would set in a 1 to  1   Aspect ratio. Centered, rectangle. replace, selection and 0 feather. In its dialog.  Those settings will be recorded into the Actions step. Step 2 menu Image Crop. that will make you image square. Step 3 menu File>Automate>Fit Image...  In the Fit image dialog you would set 630 in the width and height fields.  These settings will be recorded into the actions step.    When the action is played no dialog will be displayed. The recorded settings will be used.

  • Graphics card for use with FC Studio

    So I'm purchasing a Mac Pro for use mainly with Final Cut Studio in the next few days, and I'm unsure as to which graphics card I should order, the GeForce 7300 GT or Radeon X1900 XT (I know nothing about video cards).
    I won't be using much Motion, so the question is: in what ways does a better graphics card improve video editing? I understand that it would help for real time effects or previewing unrendered footage, but is that all? I'd love to hear some real world examples

    Adam,
    Did you post this in the Final Cut Pro Discussion, too? You might get more detailed answers. I asked a similar (but more general) question there last week, and the clear consensus was that the performance boost from the Radeon -- across the board -- would be well worth the upgrade.

  • What is the best size for using a graphic as my homepage?

    I am building my website in iWeb
    My graphic designer is going to send me a graphic that I want to use as my homepage graphic - I will input some text.
    He keeps asking me what size graphic I want (he charges by size)
    If this means file size is my answer 72dpi/ppi = the most efficient?
    What size should image be from graphic designer? in inches? in pixels? in KB and MB?
    Is GIF format is best?
    I want this to be nearly the full page size. It will be in Black Red and White (the white being a bright white, the red a deep almost crimson)
    I'm a novice. Need good advice for placing this graphic into iWeb as my homepage... Mahalo ~!~

    According to Apple, the width of most webpages is 980 pixels. If you request that your graphic designer make a JPEG image of approximately that width, you can then use this free, online tool to reduce its file size without affecting its perceptual quality:
    http://www.jpegmini.com
    If the image appears too slowly in a browser, you could reduce its file size further (with a loss of quality) via the Preview app:
    Preview 5.0 Help: Reducing an image’s file size
    Also see the option in iWeb's Preferences “Optimize images on import.”

  • What is the optimum still image size for use in Premiere Pro?

    I'm pretty new to Premiere Pro so please excuse any extreme stupidity.
    I'm creating a film comprised of various interview footage. I intend to drop in stills (and possibly scan and pan around on them). The still images are coming from various sources and will have been shot on various formats.
    I requested high res images but have been asked what size I want the images to be in mm. Can anyone advise?
    The resulting film will be shown on Vimeo and on a website, but there is also further scope for high def projection possibly.  The film is HD 1080x1920
    Any advice greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Make sure that whoever is supplying stills is measuring them in PIXELS. Not MM, not Inches, not DPI - but PIXELS. Nothing else matters in video.
    Your "canvas" in Premiere will be 1920x1080 pixels (for 1080 HD), so that is the minimum size any still ought to be in order to fill the frame without having to scale it up (quality loss). Of course, if the image is portrait-style, then it will NOT fill the frame, but rather will have black on the sides, or replacement background as others have suggested. In that case, make sure that the height is then at least 1080 pixels (width will be narrower than 1920).
    You said you wanted to pan and scan, like Ken Burns, so then you'd want images larger than the 1920x1080, such as the 3456x2304 that was suggested. This allows you to zoom in to some degree using available pixels in the image without actually upscaling the image at all. The more you wish to zoom in, the more pixels you need to accomplish that without degrading the quality by "blowing up" the image.
    Good luck

  • 16:9 Graphic size for menus

    I'm cropping images for menus for a 16:9 SD DVD and using 720 x 400px x 72. Is this the correct sizing I should use? In my searching, I have never seen this size come up in posts. If I use any other sizing, I see grey either on top and bottom or both sides. The above sizing seems to look correct in the viewer and when I simulate.
    I'm also assuming 720 x 480 is for 4:3 menus.
    Also, in Photoshop, is there a setting to show action and title safe, or is this something I have to do manually? and if so, can someone help me with where these guides in PS should be placed. A point to a link would sure help.
    Thanks for the hand holding.

    Even when making 16:9 menus I always compose as 1024x576 Square Pixels, then rescale the image to 720x576 (gets all squished) then import into DVDSP and set the menu to 16:9. Crisp and lovely.
    Of course that is for PAL. Not sure of the exact dimmensions in NTSC (know affectionally in Europe as: Never The Same Colour) but you can easily check them in the manual.
    If you have text effects or layer styles etc. remember to flatten the layers (merge with an empty layer or merge a group) coz not all effects carry over to DVDSP.

  • I am trying to Flash WinPc Graphics cards for my two QS Mac's

    I am hoping that someone out there can help me with flashing a couple of win pc graphics cards for use in my 2 QS's.
    I have been trying to use graphicelerator and atiacelerator from the known site, but all I get is a copy error -61, followed by Invalid Flasher! Make sure it's not locked or on a locked volume.
    Now having checked my permissions I seem to have read and write on everything, is there anything I can do to prove this.
    I have tried switching between the two machines, so I am remote logging into the other using VNC that all works ok, is there any permissions that need to be set up within the VNC as I checked the permissions on the desktop and it all seems to show read and write permissions?
    I did try it out on a working graphic card for my machine and still got the same result.
    I am now lost

    Maybe someone here can help.

  • Passive graphics card for 2-monitor setup

    I am looking for a graphics card for use with 2 monitors in a dual monitor configuration that has:
    Passive cooling
    1 x DVI port
    1 x DisplayPort
    I'm aware that CS6 can  make use of some of the more advanced graphics card features, such as Open CL, but I don't understand the technicalities of this, nor what this implies when choosing a card.  I will not be doing any video-editing, video playback or gaming. 
    My questions are:
    Would a card such as the Sapphire Radeon HD 6670 Ultimate provide full support for CS6, without being overkill? (http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=1&gid=3&sgid=1088&pid=1240&psn=&lid= 1&leg=0)  -  I thought that the "low active power consumption and Dynamic Power Management" features seem a good idea, since the card will never be used very intensively.
    Or would the much cheaper Zotac Synergy Edition GeForce GT 210 be just as good for my needs. (http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=1&gid=3&sgid=1088&pid=1240&psn=&lid= 1&leg=0)
    Or are there other types of cards that would be more appropriate?
    And finally, can you connect a single-link DVI device to a dual-link DVI port?  (If so, I would like the DVI port to be dual-link, for future compatibility.  If not, it will need to  be single-link, for my current hardware.)

    For the benefit of anyone searching on this topic in the future, a posting of this question on Silent PC Review (http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=65413) yielded some extremely helpful responses.

  • Choosing block size for RAID 0 & Final Cut

    Hi.
    I now have 3 500GB internal Seagate drives in bays 2/3/4 and want to make a striped 1.5TB RAID to use with Final Cut Studio 2. The help page talks about choosing a "large" data block size for use with video, but makes no specific size suggestion. What value would you recommend that I select for the block size? I haven't been in there yet so I don't know what the choices are.
    Any other settings I should be aware of that will optimize the RAID performance for video capture and editing? Thanks!

    If you're using Disc Utility to set up your RAID, when you go to the RAID tab, you'll see an options button near the bottom of the window... clicking this will open a small menu where you can set the data block size... the largest is 256K, which is what you'd want to use.
    As for you're other question... have a look at this website: http://bytepile.com/raid_class.php
    note that disc utility can only set up RAID 0 & RAID 1 (if i remember rightly).

  • Is a dedicated graphics card better than an integrated graphics card for running Logic Pro?

    I am trying to figure out if a dedicated graphics card is better than an integrated graphics card for using Logic Pro. I have heard opinions supporting both. From what I have been told a Mac mini with an integrated graphics card would work just fine. I have also heard that a modest dedicated graphics card could also benefit Logic Pro. Honestly, I have heard more people saying that the integrated graphics card on the Mac mini would do the job. But still, I have heard a couple people (even 2 senior Mac experts) state that a dedicated graphics card (iMac) is the way to go. Maybe a Mac mini with integrated graphics card will do the job, but an iMac would do the job better, I don't know, if anyone could help me I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

    One thing is Logic Pro and another thing is Final Cut Pro. Logic Pro is a music production app, so it doesn't use the GPU heavily and you can use it with an integrated GPU without any problem. However, video editing apps like Final Cut Pro or iMovie will note the difference

  • Min graphics card for muse / cc?

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Best practice for using Muse with Lightroom?

    I'm creating a photography website. I use Lightroom to manage my photographs, and I keep the pictures for my site in Collections.
    In Muse, I'd like to have ALT text descriptions (or something similar) of each picture, so that search engines can see what's on my site.
    Is there a way to embed the descriptions into the image info in Lightroom, and have it export in a way that Muse picks it up?
    My problem is this: I've been creating ALT tags in my Muse slideshows (by right clicking on each image and selecting "Edit image properties..."). This works, but I lose my ALT tag if I export the images from Lightroom using any naming convention that doesn't maintain a consistent relationship between image and name. This makes it very difficult to manage my exports from Lightroom, especially if I want to add images or change the order of images.
    At the risk of providing too much detail, the reason I rename images on export is this: In Lightroom, my images are named with my client's last name and a sequence number. When I export them for use on my website, I want them to have a different name, primarily to protect my clients' privacy, but also to allow me to organize them easily in my slideshows. So for example Jones-103.dng gets exported as Checkerbox-Wedding-Photography-[nnn].jpg, where [nnn] is a new sequence number.
    Can anyone tell me a better way to manage this workflow?
