Okay, I'm still such a noob about these things so now I am just completely confused. When I go to PS and open a new file it asks what size my file will be so I set it fo 600X600 pixels. Blank file opens and I paste some stuff, click on view "Print Size" and that think shrinks down so tiny you can't see it. WTH?

What did I miss? Why can't I just use the same size as I used before? I made that one based on inches not pixel sizes.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

You can still use inches but you'd have to make sure that you do not expand the original size of the thread. And one pixel = one tiny dot on your screen so looking at it in Print Size will make it seem extremely small. But you shouldn't have to worry about that. All you should click on is Actual Pixels beause that is the size that will show up on the webpage.

Say you used to do 2in x 2in... switch the measurements to pixels to just check you're are within size limit. Then just switch it back to inches and make the new page.

^ What she said.

Just to clarify though, Loki,the sig doesn't have to be exactly 600x600 pixels, it can be smaller, just in case. =]

LOL, smaller is smaller but this was invisible.

Seriously, it was as small as this box [ ]

**Loveless** · 01-07-2008, 11:26 PM

Don't worry, 600x600 pixels is huge on the screen.

I think I'll actually make one that isn't super complex that will explode your head and actually make something that is pleasing to the eyes.

**Valentines** · 01-07-2008, 11:36 PM

Are you able to do that Bao?

That's not you're style.

**Blaaaaaaaah** · 01-07-2008, 11:38 PM

Yeah, you don't need to print your sig so it's ok. =D

It can be smaller, just not bigger. You can still make your sig sizes like all your other ones as long as neither of the dimensions exceed 600 pixels.
