drcat123 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Make sure the picture size is 200x100 and is in jpeg format actually the picture can be bigger but the jpeg is a must for any of the pictures. It will crash if the picture is too big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AceCodey Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 It's a PNG Picture....how exactly do I make it a Jpeg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnforcer Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 You can use GIMP (it's Free) thats what I use. You can convert it from PNG to JPEG or JPEG to PNG. Pretty useful tool. You can make logo's with it too and other stuff. Hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThatChizzle Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 making it larger than 200x100 makes it look funny, and if it's too much bigger it wont load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheEnforcer Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I have both MS Paint and GIMP, I like GIMP better. But to each his own. Have a Happy Easter weekend everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fullMETAL Posted April 9, 2012 Share Posted April 9, 2012 Some helpful things: 1. When making a belt in MSPaint, save it initially as a PNG to preserve the appearance. 2. If you're going to later save it as a JPEG to use in TEW, keep in mind that saving it with MSPaint will severely compromise the quality. 3. GIMP and Paint.NET are perfectly fine free programs to save as a high-quality JPEG (at least 80% is recommended, I save at 90% most of the time in Adobe Fireworks), and they both offer vastly expanded functionality (check out Asaemon's WMMA3 Belts Thread for examples) over MSPaint. For future belts, I'd recommend getting familiar with those programs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
