Reply to "Using GIMP to Create a PNG file"

You guys may know this, but here is what I discovered for converting large png files to smaller ones.

Using Gimp-2 for PNG that are large and wrong dimensions
1. Open program and drag png to screen, go to Image/Mode/Indexed -> select max colors “9” (Note if you make it smaller the like “2” it will create a smaller file)
2. Click Convert, this will be a Gimp file
3. Go to Image/Canvas Size and adjust size to 2550 x 3300 and select resize
4. Go to Image/Scale Image and set “x” & “y” resolution to 300dpi, then click scale(Interpolation is cubic -I don’t know what the others do?)
5.Go to File and choose Export and now select PNG on bottom rignt(rename file on upper left) and export this file
