Hello Irfinatics. After lurking thru much of this forum I have realized that the vast majority of you are much more comfortable working at a depth of program control that I am not. While no simpleton, I prefer not to become sucked into the vortex of infinite variability that writing code requires. I much prefer to let you experts create and test and perfect wonderful programs and add-ons that benefit the more mundane and practical users such as myself.
Having said that. I have a problem. I'm running Irfinview 4.25 on Win XP. I used to be able to take pictures with my Canon Powershot A1000IS at 10.0 meg, download them thru Zoombrowser, the Canon proprietary software, open Irfinview as an external editor, and (the problem begins here...) using the "save" or "save as.." function I could bring up this;
Now usually, when I would click "save" at this point the program reveals a pop up window that tells me that the file is too big to be compressed normally and that it will need to be run through some auxillary program that will perform the function appropriately. I click yes at this point and a small pop up window asks what dimensions I want with some common presets available as radio buttons and a drop down that offers several different compression programs???? I remember one as being CatmullRom, it said it was slow but very high quality so I typically used it.
The message I get now is this;
By running my project pictures thru this process I was able to size them properly for posting on the different forums I frequent. I have no idea why this compression and resizing operation has suddenly become unavailable to me.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
