Mystery Picture Tips

Make the images their original size

Copy and paste the mystery pic into an imaging program, such as Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro. Even something like the “Paint” program in Windows will work for this. Shrink the picture to about 1/4 of what it was. In the Paint program, do this by clicking on Image –> Stretch/Skew and then type in “30%” for the Stretch Horizontal and Vertical areas. The picture should shrink and show you what it really looks like in it’s original form. Then poke around the site if you don’t recognize it, until you find it! – Albie Shun’u
