save new photo sizes Options

[barmi4]

Hi can anyone help ? i am preparing a slideshow but some of my photos have scanned and saved in a small size. (some are very old). I have tried the resize option , but when i save the changed photo , the original settings are saved. How can i adjust the size of my pictures so that they all appear about the same size in my slideshow. I will be very grateful for any help THANKS

Did you resize the pictures after you put together your slideshow. If you did and if you gave the adjusted photos a new name you will have to go through your slideshow and replace them with the adjusted pictures. It would help if you explained exactly how you did the adjustments and if they were made after your slideshow was put together. Just go into your slideshow, (was it made is videowave?) then bring up you photos and drag the adjusted pictures down over the original then delete the original (in the slideshow). Do not delete it out of your file. Just a suggestion, it is always better to scan at a larger and better quality to get the best quality picture.

When you open your photo in the Edit mode, do an immediate File/ Save As....and under the Options at the bottom of the screen, choose the 'Export size' and choose the size that you want.

Give the picture a new name so that you're working with a copy.

Now you're going to lose quality when you resize those small photos and you might not be happy with the result when you burn the slideshow to a DVD.

Make certain that you're making that slideshow in VideoWave and you'll have other options rather than resizing in PhotoSuite.

You can put the smaller photos onto a color panel using the Overlay feature in the Timeline View. Then you can resize the photo, put a frame around the photo, or soften the edges so that it blends into the background color panel. You may also want to try putting a rectangular or oval picture frame 'Effect' around thosee photo.

edit....
