The image, a questionnaire, has been placed on my website proventivesolutions.com.au under "Quick Questionnaire..." on the index page. And its awful. Could someone please help me out of this pickle.
I work in microsoft word, not HTML. Previous images have been presized and cut from the word document using the Vista Snip Tool as a png, the "red line" edge taken off through IrfanView's auto crop borders. Sizing became a problem when this document (mainly a Table and diagram)was too long for one screen and I couldn't use the Snip Tool. So I converted the document to png with e-PDFConverter and Creator, then tried to ensure sizing through Irfanview. I'm trying for an i-frame and think maybe I've left something unstable through the Foreign media/object process, but don't know. Really could do with some help. Thanks |

G'day.
You seem to of set up your iframe right it's just that when your questionnaire image is shown in the iframe it shows the full size of the original image, not the scaled down version you have on the page the frame is showing. I like using Gimp when I'm playing around with my images, you can get it free on the following url http://www.gimp.org/, I always use this to resize my images. It looks confusing at first but after a while it's just like riding a bike, if you need a hand with getting use to it just do another post. I made your image smaller for you so it will fit, it's smaller than A4 size, you can put this in place of the one you have to see if it's better, to see the image click here just copy and past the image into the work window of SiteSpinner or save it as a .gif or .jpg then import it to your project. Another thing, if you have the image the size you need I wouldn't think you would need an iframe, you could just add the image directly to the page without an iframe and if you are worried about the size you can have a scroll bar on the image. Good luck, Tonga. This message has been edited. Last edited by: Tonga, |

That's awesome. Thanks Tonga. The example image for pasting is great and I've already downloaded Gimp. That looks a really good product to wrestle with and look forward to more learnings and better images.
Have a good one, Byways |

Hey Byways.
That's good to hear. Gimp does look hard at first but once you get use to it it's unreal. If you need a hand with it just post in. Cheers, Tonga. |

Thanks Tonga. Gimp looks great, and I sense it has some muscle. Haven't had time to explore but think it will fix up my next challenge, the banner, which I've thought of as a step up to another level (merging current background strip, stretched Accord typeface, and a logo currently in a pdf).
Good to know your there, though. Byways |
