Well... I just posted this in the previous thread because i am dumb like that and didn't realize it was dead... Here is the message:
"Progress folks! I discovered what i was doing wrong... First let me explain my "creative process": i draw stuff with a blue pen in small sheets of paper, then scan then in 200 DPI, in black and white, throw then on GIMP, give it color, and RESIZE then to 1\4 of their size so that i can put it on flash... This was my mistake, i am not supossed to do that, the resizing process turns what was once a clear and slightly pixelated black line into a blured line with 5-6 shades of gray, all of wich make the image heavier... I tried scaning one in 100 DPI, the image turned out to be the perfect size compared to its resized counterpart AND, most importantly, had -45 KB.
Problem is that i kinda like the blured results i was getting with the resized images, you know what i don't like? Pixels, the 100 DPI images are sligthly pixelated, here is what i am going to do: For the most important and still frames i am going to use my resized 200 DPI blured images, BUT for the less important/faster frames i am going to use the 100 DPI images! Smart? What are your thoughts? I just want an opinion on my plan just in case im doing something really stupid and not realizing it...
One more question! Is there a way to use GIMP to resize the 200 DPI images without the blur? I don't want to do all the scaning and coloring again.
This is a image of a test i did with the 200 DPI images in flash, the background looks horrible... I figured you guys probably don't like cartoonish stuff, but can anyone give any
thoughts in my main character? Thank you all in advance 4chan people."
