In all of this time I've been flying in the sims i have yet to fly a biplane.  So today i decided to go biplane hunting and found one that I liked.  I went up to Anchorage to do some sight seeing.

Flying in the mountains.

Nice Pics!

Did you resize it in Photoshop? If so, how?

I always use Photoshop and I dont have that problem. Make sure you are resizing the image size and not just shrinking the image.

Good pics though!  8)

I have not resized them.  I have GCS set to take them at that size.  I use Infranview to save them as JPGs.  I think it must have to do with transfering them to here.

I always check to make sure they are clear before i transfer them.  they look fine but as soon as i bring them here they are all blury.

Nice looking plane anyway. Where did you find it?

PS. I'm not so sure this GCS is as good as people seem to think. Try MultiGrab. http://www.mnwright.btinternet.co.uk/index.htm

PPS. OK I found the Waco. I'll check it out & maybe post a few shots. MultiGrab & IrfanView is all I ever use.

Thanks for the info.  I think the problem my be in the transfering to SimV.  they look fine in infranview but when i post them here they turn to a major blur.  that and when i still had my old computer i used my graphics card.  the pics came out fairly clear then.  Its getting kind of confusing.  ???

anyway ill try mutigrab in a bit.

as for now i just made it to Dublin and about to attempt to post the pics.  

PS:  this is my 150th post.  didnt think i would ever post this many.  I guess im officialy addicted to this place Grin

Hi Triple7. I checked out that Waco. She looks nice enough but doesn't seem to like her picture taken. My shots came out much like yours. Maybe it's the textures (or the bright yellow colour) as this aircraft was originally for FS2002.

Evening all, I too use multigrab and Irfanview, but occasionally when one gets carried away I find this program comes in handy:

Its called pix resizer as you might have figured .It makes light work of all that resizing and I have seen no difference in quality.
