Saving a custom sized picture to the desktop

[Praegorn Altman]

Greetings!

I'm trying to save a custom sized picture to the desktop at the same ratio I took it in SL.  So far everytime I save to the desktop, it saves it as a roughly 512px by 512px.  As close as I can figure, the actual ratio is about 16:10.  Is there anyway I can save it at that size versus the square version?   Thank you in advance!

Ohjiro, thanks for the reply!

Unfortunately, I'm talking about a photo already taken, seen here in a 16:10 preview.   It's at this ratio I'd like to save it to my desktop.

Save it to your computer's disk, then open it in image editing software (Photoshop, GIMP, or something else) and change the aspect ratio to 16:10.

If you are not familiar with any image editing software then use this online tool for changing the aspect ratio:

Hi Coby and thanks for the reply!

First of all, the croppola.com page won't help this issue but it's a mighty handy tool so thanks for that link!

Second, I got GIMP (I like free!) and was able to change the aspect there which is cool; best of a bad situation is what it is and I can simulate the 16:10 original.

I think the lesson learned for me is any images I shoot in SL need to be saved to my computer's disk if I want to keep the rectangular form.

 

Thanks again! :matte-motes-smile:.

1. Save snapshot onto your disk.

2. Open Gimp, Ps, Neko paint or Paint Tool SAI

3. Change size on 1024x1024

4. Save it

5. Load it to SL.
