Finding Images for the creative challenge??
Help everyone. I decided to have a go at the creative challenge this week and Googled images of the candidates. I right clicked on the thumbnails and saved as JPEGS. My effort looks really fuzzy. Admittedly I did not choose 'large images', but having brought larger files into Photoshop I'm still having trouble. I've tried resizing using bicubic sharper and smoother, but this does not seem to help. What do others do? Nick |

If I'm reading what you've said correctly, you're right-clicking and saving the thumbnails? These little thumbnails are only 3 or 4 K in size and are not really much use for anything, except as a 'thumbnail'. Right-click the thumbnail and you will find the complete (larger) image on the next page that loads up. Then right-click and save that larger image. |

You might also want to try Wikipedia Commons: there are often very good images there. _________________ If you hold on to the past, sooner or later you'll lose your grip. |
