pedro Posted July 4, 2009 But why does he have flowers? I'd hoped to reveal Grievous's softer side... what's a fine chrome lightsaber display without some beautiful hand-tied pink flowers just to set if off?! I almost had his kitten in there... 'til I realised I don't have one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted July 4, 2009 Anyone may enter this raffle. (Except staff of course). Just post an 8x8 vignette with the title "Mmmmmmm Chroooome" and you're in. It doesn't matter if you like Star Wars, have a chrome Vader or eat marshmellows regularily. Just post your goddam entry Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JCC1004 Posted July 4, 2009 I'm worried my camera is no good, but KimT here is a link to one of my pics. Link. Please tell me if I could enter with that quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted July 4, 2009 I'm worried my camera is no good, but KimT here is a link to one of my pics. Link. Please tell me if I could enter with that quality. It's fine. This is just a raffle, the vignette part is just to keep you guys ion your toes A little work is required to get a raffle ticket and your vignette looks good enough to me. Some flash marks, but it really doesn't matter in a contest such as this one - there's not going to be a vote - only a draw between the entered vignettes.

Millacol88 Posted July 5, 2009 I don't think this is going to qualify, since we can't see it... Emperor claduis rome, you should deeplink a picture, that is the only way for us to see your entry untill the folder is public. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Emperor Claudius Rome Posted July 5, 2009 But it's to big. And I don't know how to resize a pic and put it on bricklink Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Millacol88 Posted July 5, 2009 Here you are sir. By the way, you'll want to upload them to Brickshelf, not Bricklink. The top three tutorials on that page will explain how. Don't worry, it's easy. I'm just concerned that the folder will not be public by the time the contest is over, and then your entry wouldn't qualify. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

InSeRt NaMe HeRe Posted July 6, 2009 InSeRT NaMe HeRe, please read these tutorials on resizing images. hey how do you do it on mac cause i got a mac and i am not sure what to do Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jifel Posted July 6, 2009 do Macs come with Paint? If so, then use that. select picture and go to images Stretch/skew and then type a number in and it will go to that percent. If you type in 20, it will become 20% of original size. Or, if you get a Flickr account it auto-resizes. jifel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thor Lund Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) thanks man real help i will download paint ASAP For the Mac use the built-in Preview app. Open your image and go to Tools -> Adjust size. Or what I often do is just to pop it into Mail pretending to send myself a email, it gives you three quick controls for resizing your image (Medium work well for this).

Artizan Posted July 6, 2009 are there enough entries yet? i hope not because i cant miss this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimT Posted July 6, 2009 are there enough entries yet? i hope not because i cant miss this one. There's still time UPDATE: I've moved the non-entry posts from the entry topic to this discussion topic. Also I've moved non-deeplinked entries here. All entries are to be deeplinked and do try to keep the picture size low If you have trouble resizing, then do some new pics and set your camera to a lower pixel solution. Entries moved here can be reposted in the entry topic, as long as they have deeplinked pics. Thanks for the many great entries so far - you guys are truly amazing I think I'll close the entry topic when it reaches 80 entries. Then it's time to draw UPDATE: I've moved the non-entry posts from the entry topic to this discussion topic. Also I've moved non-deeplinked entries here.
