Hey guys, crazy ? Can I change a picture that someone wants me to make bottlecap images out of that is 72DPI to 300DPI?

thanks
Micki

yes, but it will be smaller.

Thats fine..I can work with smaller...

...heh, a lot smaller. But that can be a good thing if you have a fairly large pic and want to use it as a small pic.

ok cool, so how do I do this?

File>new>advanced options
enter 300 in the provided area (resolution) and when you have the options as you wish, ok it.
then open up the pic in the workspace as usual.

this is for a image I already have..not a new i'm making...where do I open this image up and change the resolution on it?

thanks

can't you make a new file and just pop in the image you already have as file>open as layer? since the new file you made is in the proper resolution, I would assume that gimp would import the pic opened as a new layer as the proper new resolution. If not, I think you can do the conversion in your default photo program.
