How to change the sizes of the pictures in the pack?
And what if the pictures are of different sizes?

UnicornReality In reply to Bril-Stock [2012-05-29 20:09:09 +0000 UTC]

You would change hte sizes individually with your program of choice.

Bril-Stock In reply to UnicornReality [2012-05-30 02:02:52 +0000 UTC]

Um.... what type of program? Or can I just "save as" the smaller thumbnails that appear in my computer's files?

By program do you mean photoshop? Or will MS provided programs be fine?

UnicornReality In reply to Bril-Stock [2012-05-30 07:49:21 +0000 UTC]

I think photoshop would work yes.

Aww I don't have photoshop. Does the download cost?

I am sure some other free program can help, maybe Gimp?

how do you combine the preview image and the file?

UnicornReality In reply to MOO-Stock [2011-07-05 07:10:24 +0000 UTC]

When you upload the file it will ask for a preview image.

The internet lied to me ¬___¬

It told me that in order to make a compressed file you had to download a bunch of different programs.


Thank-you, this is VERY helpful =]

IreneLangholm [2008-06-18 18:23:49 +0000 UTC]

Awesome! I'm in the process of making a couple of stock packs myself.
What I'm wondering is; will the image files have the name of the creator attached when opening the zip file, or do I have to name each individual image "image_by_geek-stock" ? (...if you know what I mean.
Because I notice that most often when I download a pack, the name is attached. But other times, it's not.

UnicornReality In reply to IreneLangholm [2008-06-19 10:23:58 +0000 UTC]

I think you'll have to name each one on it's own.
