>>>>I need to capture a bunch of windows(vfp forms) for a web site. The windows/form size (width) is 600 to 650 pixels. I need to reduce the size (width) to about 500. I do it in Paintshot, capturing the screen/form into .bmp format and then reduce it about 80%, and save it in .gif format. It comes out ok but the screens/forms are not as clear as I would like them to be.

>>>Here's how to do it. If you wish to resize with keeping quality, you need to do it from a jpg format. You might also consider using something more powerful for graphic conversion and resizing. I use LViewPro. I consider it a killer product.

>>Thank you for the suggestion.
>>Do you know approximately how expensive is LViewPro? (I don't want to spend a lot of money just to capture a bunch of screens, since I already bought Paintshop)

>You do need to use JPG, but GIFs might be sufficient depending on how many colors you use. One thing, if it is 800x600, then you want to keep the scale the same so reduce it to 400x300, 1/2 of what is was and it usually isn't as fuzzy.
