Resolution

Sunday, June 17, 2001 by Mark M | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Hello,
I have a problem with the resolution on my monitor. I have the resolution set to 800x600, however, some of my favourite themes where designed for 1024x768. I would like to keep my 800x600 and some how display those correctly. Any suggestions?

Load the images into any decent photo/image editor and resample at 800x600. (You can usually find the Resample command in an Edit or Tools menu.)

This usually works fine when downsampling, although it sometimes gives bad resluts when trying to sample an image *up* (like from 800x600 to 1024x768).

If you are talking Shell themes....then you will probably have a bit of tweaking to do. All my current LiteSTEP themes are self-adjusting for res changes...just to take the hassle out for the user...

800x600? Eeeewww!!

If you really want to keep that resolution, you should follow their advice and resize the images yourself. And tweak a lot of stuff. Quite a bit of work!
