For the first time in over ten years, I've been inclined to share artwork with The Internet. Once upon a time I was adept at such things, but in that decade+ I have not kept up with the shifting knowledge required to competently deal with the programs involved. I'm progressing in that I found a place to scan the project in question, rather than taking a cheap photo of it with my mobile yet again.
But THIS ONE THING IS MYSTIFYING. When open for editing in either Gimp or MSPaint, the image is 1600x640 when viewed at 100%. It is another, smaller size in the 'windows picture & fax viewer.' I figured, okay, the latter program is being a simpleton--but, it also uploaded to Photobucket in the same smaller size, about 1000x450.
Yet when I right-click on the image file to get its properties, it -does- say it's the first and larger size, 1600x640.
WHY?
