How do you get clear shot like that, to get my shots which come out blurred I do ...

Print Scr

Copy to Microsoft Power Point

Right Click and Save as a JEPEG picture

[hinch]

another heavy rotating...but the livery is so photogenic i couldn't resist! it was that or embarrass myself in an aerobat...

[flynz]

hey victor alpha charlie i think you better take your aircraft for a checkup it appears to have some kind of large tumor on it

[brownbox]

nice shot. Unfortunately, the Beluga cant be made to look nice, no matter what you do with it (no offence, its a lovely shot )

Wouldn't it be better to be JEPG

isn't that what it has to be to upload here

[Alex]

Yep, best to capture the image as a bitmap, then crop, resize and any other editing before converting it to a jpeg.

Do check that folder from time to time, as the BMP's tend to be kinda weighty - 15? MB each, depending on your setup.

[scon]

How do you convert to JEPG


Found out now

[JonARNZ]

The average is about 2.5MB (screen res will determine this size), so if you take heaps then yes, clear it out occasionally. BMP's are the best format for initial editing as they retain detail, then you can convert and compress if you need to (but not much, 15% is usually more than ample IMO)

[Alex]

I usually compress to get a size, so I try to compress my jpeg's to around 100-150kb each, thats my 'secret', you can't have good quality pictures if they are around 50kb.
