How do you change a Gunsight from 128 to 32 and still keep the entire gunsight. When I try it I wind up with half a gunsight. How do I reduce the resolution??

All I do is use windows paint.

Why would you want to do this? What's the advantage?

There is no advantage to this Seeker. All of my sights are set to 128x128, and when I create a sight I blow it clear up to 256x256. The easiest way to change a sight's size is in Paint Shop Pro 7. Shift-S pulls up the resize screen, put the radio button next to Physical Size, and type in the size you want. Whack ENTER and you're done. Oh, set it to Bicubic Resample in the little box at the bottom to get a clear resize.

Ah, so if I understand you're talking about changing the size to work on the image, not an actual smaller gunsight?

(I've visions of cyber noses squashed against the windscreen trying to line up a tiny dot....)

What I am trying to do actually is find a way to make the F4U gunsight a little larger. I thought by reducing the amount of data in the sight it would enlarge the image.

BTW, It didn't work.
