Hi guys, i was just fiddling around and now i am wondering, how do I resize a picture for a GB patch. I put a pic on paint wrote stuff on it and when i made it smaller it was to blurry and small to read, any of you who have made the patches have any tips? and know ho to resize ? thanks.
I’ve made GB patches for the “Aussie Group Build”, the “Accurate Minatures Group Build”, and the up-n-coming “WWII Sub Group Build”. (**you can select my profile and view those GBs there).
I personal dont use MS Paint, cos it removes alot of detail and the image is very blurred when shrunk. I use a higher quaility graphics program (eg Adobe Photoshop). This package is great - that’s where I did my animations for the Sub GB.
I start off with a 100x100 pixel image and work from there, then shrink it to whatever size. The size most popular size of Patche around ere is 65-pixel height, and either 65 - 100 pixel width. But I make mine 70x70.
You will get some natural blurring if you shrink an image, esp text, so I suggest write your text in the font size that is the exactly how big you want it on the real 1:1 Group Badge!
Good Luck - any questions you can email me!!!
Thanks, i’ll give it a try.
