This could be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

I think it's a lovely pic.

Officer: Ohh! Ohhh! Ah good looking dog isn't it?

Sergeant: She sir, she's a bitch

Officer: Is she?

Sergeant: Yes sir. Ah look out, sir! (the sound of an explosion and someone screaming) Oh blimey.

Officer: Ah sarge?

Sergeant: Yes sir?

Officer: This dog of yours, quite a little stunner isn't she.

Sergeant: Look out sir (sound of machine gun fire) you think they're bringing up the big mortar sir?

Officer: Yes. Does she eh, does she have any friends?

Sergeant: What sir?

Officer: Your dog.

Sergeant: Just the other dogs in the neighborhood sir.

Officer: She doesn't have any steady boyfriends does she?

Sergeant: Oh no sir she is a dog.

Officer: Yes of course.

(sound of far away explosion)

Sergeant: Oh blimey it's getting bad sir.

Officer: Yes, still she would not object to someone calling on her would she sarge?

Sergeant: I am not sure what you mean sir.

Officer: Well I..I..I was thinking perhaps I could take her for a walk sometime.

Sergeant: Oh yes sir, course sir. anytime.

Officer: Thank you sarge.

Sergeant: (yelling) Look out sir! (explosion) Now that's my wife sir.

Officer: Ah you sure sarge?

Sergeant: Yes sir, that's my wife.

Officer: And that's your dog?

Sergeant: Yes sir.

Officer: I see. Looks like I will be calling on you a lot when all this is over.

Sergeant: Oh thank you sir.

Officer: Not at all it's just that I am rather fond of dogs,

She's a good lookin' dog. But the way she's wearing the handkerchief means she's lesbian, dominant, looking for a bull terrier.

Also, I can't stop thinking Wil Wheaton Terrier.

Shawnee123 · 04-20-2010, 01:34 PM

Ha. Wil Wheaton has been doing some appearances (as Wil Wheaton) on The Big Bang Theory. He and Sheldon have a huge rivalry.

glatt · 04-20-2010, 01:38 PM

I used to follow Wil Wheaton, back in my Fark days. I got a kick out of seeing him on Big Bang.

See, this is what I'm talking about...To hell with 'resizing' a pic. My cat does that regularly. What I need is to reduce the size of the FILE. If I take a picture of, or with, grass, or anything green, or with bajillions of edges, getting the pic file under 175kb for the Cellar, and still have it big enough to look at, is damn near impossible. I use PhotoStudio 5.0, for compression I'm trying Web Resizer, not thrilled with it, but still learning the program. Any compressor suggestions?

Shawnee123 · 04-20-2010, 03:31 PM

But but but...that's what I've been trying to tell you. Well, not YOU you, but all y'all. When I use MS Office Pic Manager, sometimes I don't see any changes dimensionally, but it takes it down to the right amount of KBs for posting here.

Again...right click, open with MS Office Pic Mngr, choose edit pics, choose compress, choose for web pages. Voila. A postable pic.

Sigh...

There's gotta be a story somewhere, maybe a proverb or one of Asshop's Fables, where some insect tries to tell all the other insects they're working harder, not smarter, and they ignore him and keep trying to do something that's really easy like stack blades of grass but they didn't like using just ANY tool for the job it had to be a cool tool, but they couldn't get the cool tool to work quite the way their good old-fashioned mouthy teethy tool worked but they still wanted a cool tool, until they all die of some strange disease because they just wouldn't listen to the lowly lay insect who they thought didn't know nuttin'.

The End

Tulip · 04-20-2010, 11:03 PM

Okay, so I tried what Shawnee instructed, just to see how easy it is. Yeah, it was easy, and I did a save as. As I closed the program, it said some things weren't saved. Hmm....so I saved it. And damnit, I saved the original's picture into this tiny picture that I'm not sure how it clear it would look into a 4X6 print. The only reason why I'm upset is because it's my mom's picture. If it were mine, then who cares. My mom would not be happy with me. Anyone know a way to reverse the compression?

It's a stretch, but doesn't hurt to ask.

Tulip · 04-20-2010, 11:10 PM

Seems like no one really needs it anymore, but since I said I'd do it, I looked up the program I use to resize pictures. It's called Image Resizer Powertoy. All you do is right-click on the picture, choose resize picture, then choose small, medium, large, handheld PC. It will save to a specific dimension. (Sorry, too lazy to look them up now.) Anyone who cares for the program, I can either pm or email it to you. Btw, it's a program for Microsoft.

Ugh...sorry.

After you "save as" it will tell you there are features that didn't save, or some such stuff. I just cancel it, I think. I'll resize somethign later and let you know.
