What's dpi?

dots per inch

[PH]

if he can't find the drop-down box in photoshop's image resize that changes dimensions to "cm" then he doesn't deserve an explanation.

Yea but...but...when I tried to make it the size I wanted by changing the cm, it just got really puny.

Hmm.. Lemme try to explain here. When you want to resize an image with cm's, you need to know your dpi. If you use it on computer as files, 72 dpi should do the trick. It's pretty much the standard there. But if you want to print something out, you need higher dpi. Let's say in my case my printer works well at 200 dpi, the image that i would resize would be alot bigger in pixels but still the same size as in cm. but if I would print them out, they would be the same size except the other one would look like crap. 3 guesses which.

Hope that confused you

[moltenrock]

Yea it did. :fear:

[The Unliked One...]

What program you have? BESIDES MS Paint

Photoshop Creative Studio 2

Ok lets see..

You go to Image >> Image size...


Then you just check from the document size part that you have cm's selected and type in your values. Just keep the pixels/inch as 72 and unselect the Constrain Proportions from below. Then press ok..


If you still manage to fail after all this.. Gj
