Ya…the images are 1:1 (square) not 4:3 – this means you can’t really make them go “full” width in a standard aspect ration video. You will either have to live with “black bars” which often are OK, put them into another image with a background sized to 4:3, or sometimes even zooming in works OK.

You can save the images just by right-clicking on them and Save As (or Save Image As) to your hard drive.

Fantastic as usual! Wondered how you managed some of the graphics you include in your screencasts – had visions of you slaving away with photoshop! I really appreciate the tips and advice you give and the way you share your discovery’s with all of us – awesome!

Have a fantastic 2009.

Am I right that you can’t DOWNLOAD these images; that Image Chef has to host them?

I’d obviously need to import them into another program.

If the largest image is 500X500, how does that play with 4:3 and 640X480? Or even 720X480?

I’m looking to make a promotional movie like Carrie Wilkerson’s The Boss Movie and I’m looking for a place to get quality images that will be the best fit — which includes resolution.

Am I missing something here. and the Image Chef output will work?

Is there a better place?

Are the images like the ones Carrie used all custom shots?

Just trying to piece this together.

Thanks.
