Sorry. My warped, twisted, demented, sarcastic sense of humor overwhelmed my ability to communicate.

Is it just me, or does everyone notice that the wheels are slightly oval, making the car look lower?

I think the aspect ratio of the photo was changed slightly to cause the ovoid wheel appearance.

To make the picture fit full screen, you'll need to crop the photo or increase adjust the aspect ratio to 1.33 to make the picture fit in the screen at 1024x768.

Its’ the stretch feature….In Windows display settings. It does give the car a cartoon like quality. Not that its exactly lacking that anyway…..

Or someone could call MS support and complain about a stretch problem with their display. :D

Hi Diamet,

It was too convenient to not comment on it. I have never seen the stretch applied in the other direction for obvious esthetic reasons. :)

see below

PS... How did you compress such a large pic to get it below the 65kb limit ?

It's funny when people put pictures of friends as the wallpaper and use the stretch function (because they don't have Photoshop) thereby giving people the funhouse mirror treatment. :D

justinwrock hosted the picture himself rather than posting on the site directly. And now it looks like an EVO. :eek:

Use photoshop. Go to the type of file and save a a JPG (JPEG). It saves it as a much smaller file and you can say what quality that you want. For example, i made this picture smaller by saving half of the maximum quality (there are 12 levels, I chose level 6)

Plus, it is not attached as a file. I use photobucket to host images, and use the line of text that holds the html code to attach a file.

Here is another high res photo. I attached it in the same manner.
