Looking for Symbol or Image

[Deirdre]

Does any one have a really nice upper class resturant or expensive dining room type chandelier?

I am having difficulties creating image and am seeking your assistance.

Needs to be able to fit into room that has 100 inch ceiling above a 36 inch dining table.

Dee-try this link:
www.gallery84.com, and http://www.lampsplus.com/Products/Chandeliers has a good selection; since I haven't figured out yet how to make images for the library I wouldn't know exactly where to begin. There aren't any dimensions listed.
Hope this helps.

I too am having problems with creating an image from a photo or web image I like.

I was sort of hoping one of the ladies who do it all the time would chip in.

They of course are at work, so it won't be till tonight I will know if they read my plea.

Then there is Allen, he's usually at home with his dog.

Sorry,I have no girlie pictures of chandelier...
What are you having trouble with?png files work best..

[dr0591]

Pick one that you like, Dee, and I'll give it a shot. It should only take a couple of minutes. (I have PhotoShop at work, too, so I can mess around with stuff like that here. I try not to let myself do it too often, though! )

Actually, I hadn't thought of using an image of a chandelier. That might work out pretty well, you'll have to let us know.

I did a crystal chandelier, but it was too complex and didn't come out very well, plus the .png file was too big to attach anyhow. I'm going to pick a simpler one and try again.

[dr0591]

OK, try this one -- let's see if the .png file works for a download. If not, I'll turn it into a .zip file.

NOPE, SORRY -- NOT HAPPY WITH IT YET. I'LL TRY AGAIN IN A MINUTE.

[Deirdre]

Thank you for offering to help; either one of these two pics will accomplish the look being sought.

Allen, I think what I need to do is just close the plan down and concentrate on learning IMAGES. Just need a better step-by-step picture tutorial.

I promise that I will get it; I have to, what would I do if something happened to any of you? I'd be on my own any how.

Are you having a one way conversation with yourself and your computer? LOL

Kathleen,

See private message from me to you. Info included that may assist delivery if too big for HT.

Is this what you are looking for...

PM sent. The file is only about 37 kb.

Very nice, Joel.

Here's the other one I worked on. This is just a jpg because the .png file is just a little bit too big to attach. Let me know if you'd like it and I'll email it to you.

Nice!
I'm confused.
The png file of my chandelier is only about 37 kB. That's relatively small and easy to send/attach.

Why are my .png files so small and everyone else's so large?

[dr0591]

I don't know why you have a small .png, Joel. Most people want big ones, but I can see the value of a small one.

(Oops, that questionable humor was also in questionable taste, wasn't it? Are the HomeTalk police going to evict me?!!)

Let me know if you figure this out. Did you resize your image at all? Maybe it's due to some setting in your photo editing program that's different from usual.

MY PNG IS NOT SMALL!!!! It's Elegant.

I haven't done anything unusual...in fact, I just saved a copy of Dierdre's chandelier, opened it in Photohop, did what I did, and saved it as a .png

Not sure why others have such large files.
