-HEE Click- Did a quick piece for my girly instead. (I know the sabino isn't the same, I'm gonna reroll her to something closer later.)

Oh that's beautiful! Suitably different from the other use of it posted earlier, imo, it's a different feel :)

I just feel guilty posting it at the same time. I've got stock sitting around to use that I know has been used before, but this just feels wrong.
I could *maybe* redo it with a different stock.

Asfa, unless the idea seems to be really similar, like same horse recolour, atmosphere, theme, and so on, I really don't see anyone being upset about it (or even having the right to be upset, in my honest opinion). Free stock is free stock. I even find horse stock from others' art and go "Oooo I want to use that in the future!"

Oooh it’s super pretty! I love the white marking and the eye, really striking

Yeah I dug it out from the depths of Adobe. But I suppose I can show it if I'm just going to stash it.

It was my first attempt at messing with white markings and I kinda really like the fur.

Yeah, same except I mostly use Adobe… I guess it might be a bit awkward if you’ve used the same horse and background together but (personally) I don’t see a problem with that. Unless someone has bought sole rights to an image (unlikely and not an option through Adobe!) they’ve no recourse

Fair play! You could always post it in the future 😊 Although now I’m curious to see it!

I basically only ever pull stock from Colourize-Stock and DancesWithPonies, so I'm convinced all of my horse stock has been used before xD but I get what you mean, it does make it a little awkward when they're directly next to each other in the forum
Asfamoth
04:45:23 Asfa
Naw, it was just a "f*ck around and find out" piece so I think I'll leave it. I don't wanna be that person.
Oakmoss Stud

Definitely still post it! There's only so much stock in the world, and I'm sure your style is still unique enough to be different :)
Ashcroft Park Stud
04:38:53 Ash
If it were me, I’d still post it - such is the way of stock images that you’re bound to get people using the same combos! If you’re worried you could add in when you started the piece into the description for your auction
Asfamoth
04:34:37 Asfa
Oh man this is awkward. I *just* finished an art piece and was about to put it up for auction... only to find someone posted one earlier today with the exact same stock. Now I don't know what to do with it...

Really curious to see how my gaggle of boys do, shame none of them managed a W in bravery.

Resizing without loosing quality? December 5, 2018 06:23 AM

Hey! If someone could help me it'll be WONDERFUL

I'm struggling when it comes to resizing images since I bought my new computer (I had a 2012 MacBook Pro and I now the 2018 version).
Since then, working on small canevas (less than 1000x1000 px is almost impossible) and resizing to sizes always give me a final result all blurred.
My settings are the same as before, I tried to get some help from Apple and Adobe but it didn't work and I'm about to throw my Mac in the garbage lol
NEED HELP x)

Recent examples of what I mean :

and how I'd like it to look (as sharp as Ven lol!)

Do you resize within the art program you use?
When I export my images, I always resize the photo in the art program I am using to help preserve some quality. I've found that online photo resizers tend to loose a LOT of sharpness in the image.

What size canvas do you work on for your art?
I do 1000x1000 for horse avatars,
900x900 for stable avatars,
and 2007x450 for stable banners.

Also, I recommend sharpening the horse before smudging and the slightly sharpening again right before you export. Sometimes it is very easy to smudge the horse stock a bit too much and loose lots of the depth.

Also another thing to be aware of, usually if the horse stock is very small on the banner, it tends to be quite a bit blurry. That's why many artists make the horse fill up as much of the banner as possible.

If you want the horse to be small, be sure to blur the background and sharpen the horse. This will help the horse stand out and not look blurry compared to the sharp background.
