SimSig layout - how do I upload a wide screenshot? 15/03/2012 at 00:32 #30658

Hello all,

I have seen some pictures before of user made SimSig maps (as in dummy versions so to speak, not working just a form of drawing it to look like a SimSig simulation i.e Colchester)

Question is, how do I upload such a file to here? If I attach it as a photo file, it becomes stupidly small and unreadable as it's so wide. Is it best to just zip it up then people can open it with picture viewer and zoom in, or get a clearer image through viewing in Paint, or is there an easier way round?

Just wanted to upload a WIP map, that was all :)


Cheers,

James.

Is it not the case that when you click on the picture it expands to full-screen?
There is a file size limit though and certain formats take up more space than others for ostensibly the same picture.

I upload mine to photobucket then link them to here, easier than trying to get files that fit in the forum limit for upload.
