Hi Douglas, like anything else in software development, the idea is simple until you realise what the knock-on consequences could be! imho it should work like this: - User crops/scales image - User can hit 'save' and the image is saved at full resulotion - Or right-click on the image and select an option to apply cropping to the saved image (plus compression to 100/200 dpi) - MSO does this. - OR, user can set a global option to save images with cropping applied to whatever is saved. Maybe another global option to save at 100/200 dpi or the original resolution? You thoughts? Sounds simple, though I imagine it could be a headache to get right in programming. The image would presumably have to get sent out to some sort of JPEG routine, have its resolution changed, then be sent back.
