Look as a comparison to your image: <a href="https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/8/8c/Pink_for_Pink.jpg" target="_blank">https://fedoraproject.org/w/uploads/8/8c/Pink_for_Pink.jpg</a> and my slight alteration: <a href="http://nicubunu.ro/pictures/Pink_for_Pink-nicu.jpg" target="_blank">http://nicubunu.ro/pictures/Pink_for_Pink-nicu.jpg</a> I adjusted color levels and curves a bit (see a couple of paragraphs about this in my portraits tutorial: <a href="http://howto.nicubunu.ro/portraits_touch-up_gimp/" target="_blank">http://howto.nicubunu.ro/portraits_touch-up_gimp/</a>) and increased the sharpness (the original image had a larger resolution, you resized it and this made it a bit blurry, so sharpen to compensate for resize). - your photo has a 1280x800 resolution, which is probably the screen size of your laptop (and is widely used on cheap-to middle priced laptops). However, a lot of other people have larger screens and for them a larger photo is more useful. You have a powerful camera, so you can produce photos with a large resolution (a wallpaper sized down looks better than one sized up). Of course it is a good thing to not leave the photo at the size produced by the camera (which is huge), but 1920x1200 looks like a good balance. - as you probably know, JPEG uses lossy compression. However, leaving the photo at 100% quality will produce a very large file size. In my experience, you can reduce the quality to 95-97%, have a considerable smaller file size and still acceptable quality. -- nicu :: <a href="http://nicubunu.ro" target="_blank">http://nicubunu.ro</a> :: <a href="http://nicubunu.blogspot.com" target="_blank">http://nicubunu.blogspot.com</a> Cool Fedora wallpapers: <a href="http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/" target="_blank">http://fedora.nicubunu.ro/wallpapers/</a> Open Clip Art Library: <a href="http://www.openclipart.org" target="_blank">http://www.openclipart.org</a> my Fedora stuff: <a href="http://fedora.nicubunu.ro" target="_blank">http://fedora.nicubunu.ro</a> _______________________________________________ Fedora-art-list mailing list <a href="mailto:Fedora-art-list@redhat.com" target="_blank">Fedora-art-list@redhat.com</a> <a href="http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list" target="_blank">http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-art-list</a> </blockquote></div> </div>
