I have taken some pictures of containers that I would like to reskin. Can someone tell me how to resize these to match the size of the normal ace files in tagatools2? If not could someone lead me to the proper area of the Help file within Paint Shop Pro7.Thanks for any help!

RE: Paint Shop Pro 7 Question

RogAnn,Resizing for MSTS is easy in PSP. Use the "Selection" tool (dashed box, 6 down on the tool list on the left-side of PSP) to pick the area in your photo you want to copy. When selected (the box will be animating around your selection), select "Edit" from the toolbar at the top, then click "Copy".Now, got to your bitmap from brought over from TGATool, use the selection tool again on the area that you want the container you just copied from the photo, then click "Edit" again, then "Paste", "Into Selection", and PSP will automatically resize it for you.Hope that helps a little, I kinda typed fast as I need to roll out to work.
