i am trying to create an image to use as my forum signature.
the effect i am trying to create is a banner below my posts on this forum and others.
the problem i am experiencing is that the image gets distorted when it is displayed (i.e. the aspect ratio is altered when it displays, normally squashed).
how do i get around this? when i reduce the dimensions of the image to very small the aspect ratio stays correct but it is obviously to small to achieve the banner effect i want. the distortion occurs even when the image does even come close to filling the width of the screen....
