Guest lime ruined my life Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 is there a way to give edges a really smooth crisp look? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostwriter Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 No, they're lossy graphics. Use bitmap instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MarkJDelaney Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Eh, or GIF or PNG. Depending on image content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimr Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Is there a way you could increase the resolution in only the border by cutting the edges out and editing them on their own and pasteing them back in?Just to clarify I have no idea what i'm talking about but a lightbulb just popped above my head and I took that to mean my simpleton idea was godsent. Also, how the hell did I get that lightbulb in the first place? Its way too high and we don't have a fucking ladder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Of Fudge Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 could you bump the contrast and use the 'cut out bits of paper' filter thingy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MarkJDelaney Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 why are you all just listing file types!!!you're not helping my problem!We've solved your problem - use GIF or PNG ideally. These graphics formats handle sharp, crisp colour definition but only on a restricted colour pallete. Ideal for the image you've described.GIF - Few colours, ideal for black text/detail on plain back colour - vice versa, any colour.PNG - Handles photos, images with larger resolution/detail. Bigger output file, but applicable for the web also.JPEG - Same as PNG, but is a lossy graphic can therefore be compressed RIGHT down but by compromising on output clarity!
