http://www.damnfunnypictures.com/html/C ... -Ever.html Could someone guide me on the exact resize i would need to fit this onto a piece of A4 paper? or a couple, so far i have either had a really small print or its squashed onto one piece being to big.
Cheers guys.

The image size is not important. Make sure the proportions are correct & use the software you have to adjust the print size. You can use any publishing software (M$ Office) or whatever software came with your printer. By the look of it that image will need cutting into at least 4 parts.

Would you be happy to help me with Irfanview to do that doug? I tried it with PSP7 but it keeps crashing most likely because the size is so large.

OK. Let me try it. Not sure IrfanView can handle something that size.

PSP7 will do it on my old machine so you should have no problems. Do you want the border left round it? Just too big for 4 separate images so I'll have to start all over again. I might have to leave this until I have more time.

thanks for trying Doug. I dont mind about the border. Are you just chopping the image into pieces?? If so how big a piece should it be for standard A4 size. Its that size issue that i dont know which makes it difficult to do.

I use standard screen size images. The original image is 1200 pixels wide so it needs chopping into 1200 x 1600 pieces. No need to be too accurate. Leave a little extra for overlap on each image.
