I took my pictures back to the guy. After about four hours of fiddling and reading about resolutions and aspect ratios, I think I finally got the image in the correct proportions. I delivered him the new image, but he made me pay again to make prints of it. Whee. So just shy of $20 and who knows how many total hours later, I have three cropped 5×7 prints, and three full 5×7 prints with white filler bands (the second set I still have to pick up).
What can I learn from this? Plan ahead, stupid. Don’t work right up to the edge of an image. Start out larger than you need, and if you don’t work all the way to the edges you can crop the image down to fit. Yay. Now I know for next time… -_-
I have approximately one hour to pack my stuff up for Brickfest East Coast and eat lunch before I have to go to work until 10:30. Which is a good subject for another rant because the stupid people there have no employee appreciation! Argh! Frustrations! Yeah. Whee. I need a job that will fit in with my packed school schedule that starts in two weeks. What are the chances of me finding that? Heh. Off to pack.
Oh, and I love Rachel. Heehee. Pictures of her make me smile. And I miss her…
