Re-sizing Pictures

Hi,

I decided to upload a fan art to the Fan Art section of the gallery for the first time but I noticed that when I clicked on it, the picture was too big to be seen properly. Is there a way I can re-size it after I uploaded it or do I have to remove the picture, make it smaller and then upload the edited smaller version?

I'm sorry about the large size. I did read the rules, it just looked really small when I previewed it on the computer but somehow it comes up larger in the preview window on the website.


I'm back again after being away a handful of years. 2026 Revamp, Baby!

I can't approve or remove images after they've been uploaded, but instinct says that you'll have to get a manager or admin to remove the picture, make it smaller yourself, and then upload the smaller version.

You were probably zoomed out when you previewed it on the computer. If you check the file properties (right click, should say something like 'file properties' or 'get info') it should say something about the pixel dimensions of the image. If you've downloaded Embri's Flaris Norn wallpaper from the CCSF 2008 website, you'll see that it comes in various sizes (which you can see by the same 'file properties' step). When you upload a non-wallpaper to CC.com and you want it to show on people's screen all at once, the pixel X and Y have to be smaller than a smallish wallpaper, as those are the standard maximum sizes that people can display all at once.

Clear as mud? ;)
