Title: Check this image - my first attempt at 3d scenario
Post by: Rui 'Trovatore' Pires on Sun 15/06/2003 18:37:12
Ok, so it isn't much, but as I said, it's a first attempt. I've found a problem, though - the color depth. Is there any way of converting 24-bit to 16-bit without losing much of the quality?

Renaming a file to .jpg doesn't magically convert it. It's a .bmp.

He is saying that it takes 4 minutes to download the image cause its still a bitmap

You don't NEED photoshop; paint shop pro will do fine, or even the freeware GIMP: http://www.gimp.org

Actually, the color reduction in Photoshop is much better than in Paint Shop Pro. I'm not sure about Gimp..
