Issues with Scaling Down Sai Images
Posted: Sat Oct 20, 2012 2:27 pm
So, if I take my layered sprite and scale down in Sai:
quality = questionable
But if I export the layers into .pngs first and then scale down:
quality = much better
How do I achieve the higher quality of the first without taking about 3000 hours to export and scale down all the separate .pngs?
Photoshop seems to have a batch resizing function but there is no option for .pngs.
Is there a commercial program that maybe resizes batch files easily and automatically?
Or am I doing this a** backwards as I am normally inclined to do?
Thanks for any advice.
*I should add that exporting now is much easier because of Camille's suggestion to use Slicy (thank you forever). It's the resizing part or the task that is the challenge.
**Edit 2: I'm also seriously reconsidering the idea of working in such a large file size if my final sprites when I get reduction quality after resizing down?
