Hi Doug... :)

Yes that is the one I use and normally I will uncheck the middle box but perhaps I should leave all three checked.

When I open a screenshot by this method:

Screenshot>Open in Microsoft Office Picture Manager>
Auto Correct>Save

Is this considered "Editing"?

If it is I now know why they don't want it used in the Graphic Gallery>Simviation Screenshot Showcase even though it is part of the Microsoft Office Picture Manager Program.

The top one is all you need for ground shadows.

I thought you used BD Sizer to resize your shots. I've never used Office Picture Manager & have no knowledge of it. I presume that "Auto Correct" is similar to the "Auto Adjust Colours" function in IrfanView.

I suppose this would be considered editing if you wanted to be pedantic. I'm not sure it's anything to worry about unless you're entering a shot for a competition.

Hi Doug... :)

Yes I use BD Sizer after I open my shots in Microsoft Office Picture Manager and I am sure that Auto Correct does the same thing in that program as does Auto Adjust Colours in IrfanView.

Thanks for clearing this up for me.

Hi Doug. Why do you need this Picture Manager gizmo? I was wondering why you don't open the shots directly in BD Sizer.

Hi Doug... :)

I thought Auto Correct in Microsoft Office Picture Manager made the shot look much nicer but will now go back to opening in BD Sizer.
