Hole Previews

Post by linksrevisited »

Thought I would add some hope previews to one of Sage's courses. I have followed the steps as per Lez's video but when I come to add a .jpeg in the hole previews section of APCD it is coming back and saying can't load .jpeg.

I think iot maybe due to file dimensions and I haven't resized them, what do the image size has to be please.

Any ideas please

Cheers

Make sure you're saving them as .jpg and not .jpeg. Also, if you're using a newer version of Photoshop, try loading the saved jpg's into Microsoft Paint and re-saving them.

Try loading them into Paint and re-saving them, as I suggested.

Lez is right, you just have to re-open it with Paint and save it, it works perfectly. I never find a way to work directly with Photoshop :dunno:
