How To Do Digital Entries
Image Resizing with Photoshop Elements
March 19, 2010 by Cole Wolford
Start Photoshop Elements
For example purposes I will use the image requirements of Florida Watercolor Society.
“All digital images must have a resolution of 300 dpi and 1800 pixels on the longest side of the image, either in height or width.”
In upper left click on File.
: normal;">A drop
down menu appears and then click on Open.
A box appears and find the image file that you want to resize. Click on it to get it to appear in the file mane box and then click Open.
Your image now appears in Photoshop
Elements and is ready for editing.
To resize your image to the requirements of a show click on Image.
A drop down menu appears and move your pointer to Resize.
A side menu appears where you then move your pointer to Image Size and click on it.
A dialogue box appears where you enter the size you need for the entry. In the box marked Resolution type in 300. On the lower left click on the box Resample Image. Now go to the box that corresponds to the longest side of the image(Width or Height) and type in 1800.
Your image is now sized for the entry. Now you need to save your new sized image.
Saving the Resized Image with Photoshop Elements
Go to the upper left and click on File.
A drop down menu appears and you click on Save as.
The “Save As” dialogue box appears where you enter the name the image must be called according to the prospectus. Make sure jpg is selected in the “Format” box.
italic;">“The digital files must be named as follows: last name in CAPS + first name in lower case, #1 or #2 and the title of the painting. The file format must be jpg. Example : DOEjohn #1_landscape.jpg”.
In the upper part of the box find the Save In area. If the folder listed is not where you want to save your resized image, use the drop down menu to locate and then click on the place where you want to save the image. Click Save .
Remember where you save your image so when you email or put it on a cd it will be easy to find.
or try
If you do not already have software to rescale your image to the required dimension for entry into the 2010 Florida Watercolor Society Exhibition, this might help you.
Go to http://www.GIMP.org where you will find free software that you can use to resize your image.
