Hopefully, it'll help the smushed icons disappear from the face of LJ. Ohh I definitely hope so. I will pimp this anytime I see a badly smushed icon.. :) THANK YOU so much for this. It needed to be done!
It works *exactly* the same as if you went with Marquee Tool + Image >> Crop + Image Size. I just find it easier to use the crop tool because it can crop and resize at the same time... and I'm lazy. :)
Yay thanks for the hints! Now, I noticed that you use the 200 pixels/inch (rather than 72) - is this for a specific reason? Does it create a better quality picture?
Yes, especially for icons, which are so small -- it seems the bigger resolution makes them clearer. It makes the file size bigger though -- my icons are usually all over 30KB size because of it.
Finally, finally! I'm so glad you did this sweetie! I mean, seriously! Hopefully LJ will be a much prettier place because of this post! *runs off to pimp*
