Hi All,
I edited the enclosed .psd file, saved it as a new.psd. I deleted the header text and replaced it with my own.
Every time I save as a .jpg file, it shrinks it about a 1/4 inch, just enough that it doesn't fit the rest of the theme.

I did not change any settings... I tried Save for web.., Save a Copy..., constrain proportions under Image Size..
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
dub |

Are you choosing HTML and ALL Slices when you save it?
It shouldn't end up as one image, it is a few different slices. |

| Do I choose HTML Only or HTML & Image? What do I name these files, and where do I put them. (html & jpg) |

Hi mars,
I saved the .jpg and .html file with the original name (the .psd file) in slices and uploaded the html file to the eq2 theme root, and the .jpg to the "images" subdirectory. It did not replace any files, and my site defaulted back to the default image which is mainlogo.jpg (your original theme header).
Shouldn't these be replacing other files such as mainlogo.jpg? Also, the .html file photoshop created would also not replace any .html files given the name it would use (which would be the default name of the .psd) |

| The html file doesn't need to be uploaded, and the images created should be the right name to replace the ones that are in the theme. |

Ok. I'm starting to think Photoshop may be scaling my image down, because from the looks of it, (http://www.shatteredmoonguild.com) the header should be much wider and slightly taller ( take notice to the two red colums right underneath the man. It does look the like the PSD image proportions are slightly higher than the .jpg though (width 800 .psd - width 735 .jpg).
I resized the image before I saved it as .jpg (Save for Web.. ->html & image -> All Slices)
I'm completely stumped, lol! |

| By the way MARS... one thing that was missing on the theme pack DMcod4 was the two fonts used (Army and ft52 Normal) for the PSD file you provided. When you open it and try to make changes the font file is not present so you can not make the same effect and writing what we want. |
