Q: This method will help you change the size of the entire image. If you want to crop out a part of the image to resize, see Cropping an Image in Preview. To search for an image name or tag, open Finder, then click the magnifying glass icon in the menu bar. Type in your search criteria and press Return to show your results. This will open the image in Preview. You can also right-click the image and select "Open With" and then "Preview." This will launch a new toolbar at the top of the Preview window. Resolution is measured in pixels per inch (also called "dots per inch" or "dpi"). If you plan to print your image or simply want it to retain as much of its quality as possible, consider raising the resolution. If your image is for the web or for use in an app like Facebook, the default (72) is fine. If you start with a higher resolution, reducing it will give you a smaller file size. If you plan to print your image in a high-quality format, such as for advertisements or other forms of business communications, set it to at least 600. Note: this will raise the size of the file significantly. To print glossy photos, 300 will suffice. The file size will be much larger than that of a default 72 dpi image, but the final quality will be worth it. The larger the width and height, the larger the file size. It may be helpful to change the unit of measurement to best visualize your image. For example, you can change it to "cm" if you want to specify the width in centimeters. Click the drop-down right next to both Width and Height to make your selection. If you would prefer, you can choose the size by selecting a percentage of the current size. Select "Scale," then choose a percentage from the drop-down. This is optional, but you can use this option to make sure that setting the width also modifies the height. This ensures that the image retains its original proportions. If you are dissatisfied with the changes, press Cmd+Z to undo them. Once you're done resizing the image, remember to save your work. If you want to save this newly resized image as a brand new file, Click "File," then "Save As," then choose a new filename. If you realize you made a mistake after saving, click "Revert To" in the File menu and select "Browse All Versions" Choose a previous version of the image to which you would like to revert.
A: Navigate to the image you wish to resize. Drag the image to the Preview icon in the Dock or Finder. Click the edit button (a square with a pencil) to switch to Edit Mode. Click the "Tools" menu and select "Adjust Size". Change the resolution. Type your desired width and height in the designated boxes. Place a check next to "Scale proportionally" to avoid warping the image. Click OK to view the image at its new size. Press Command+S to save your changes.

Q: The most important step in starting a collection is selecting what you want to collect. To do this, consider your interests. Do you like history? Maybe you would like collecting old stamps or coins. Do you enjoy reading? Perhaps you would prefer to collect books. Are you a big traveler? Maybe maps are more your speed. Whatever you pick, make sure it's something you're passionate about. Other ideas of things you can collect include autographs, watches, wines, art, hats, figurines, cups, shot glasses, key-chains and postcards. If you like spending time outside, try making your collection nature-based. Consider collecting seashells, rocks or pebbles, fresh flowers, acorns or leaves. If you have inherited a small collection from a friend or family member, consider expanding on that. Once you've made your initial choice, it's time to narrow it down. Saying you're going to collect books is too vague for a collection; instead, consider collecting used books or children's books or first edition copies of books. If you're collecting sports cards, only collect cards for a certain sport or team. The more focused your collection, the more challenging and fun it will be to hunt down your pieces. If you're collecting rocks, try collecting the rocks by different rock classifications. If that's too specific, you can collect based on factors like location, color, texture or shape. Before you buy the first piece for your collection, you need to know what you're looking for. Spend some time online learning about the history of your collection. Talk to people in online forums about what pieces they have or are looking to buy. The more you know about your collection, the easier it will be to track down specific items. Find out what the most sought after pieces in your collection are and always keep an eye out for them. Decide if you're collecting for investment or enjoyment. If you're looking to make money off your collection, you'll need to do far more research than if you're just collecting items that make you happy.
A: Decide what you want to collect. Focus your collection. Research your collection.

Q: . Download all of the required software for the activation of your webcam, and install and activate Skype. You will need to complete these steps using a computer connection. You can then leave the computer attached to the webcam in the room or use a wireless webcam that you can establish video connections with independently. Using your webcam with a dedicated router makes it possible for you to remove the device and take it on any trips that you go on with your baby in tow. This is small camera set-up that frees you from having to use a computer. Once the device is activated and installed in your baby's room, you can pull up Skype or another monitoring program whenever you like to activate the video and audio. IP cameras work by establishing their own separate IP address, creating a network connection without the necessary wires. Skype also sells their own video device that you can use for baby monitoring. Going through Skype for the purchase can eliminate many of the problems that you might face with installation. Skype is not your only option for video monitoring. If you plan to use your smartphone, look into your other options, including the cloud baby monitor or the dormi. These apps offer features that allow you to hear sounds without disturbing your baby. They also come with motion alerts and the capability to connect multiple devices. Some security companies are also getting into the baby monitoring game and many of their devices are compatible with Skype. Some of them even have additional features, such as night vision and activity logs.
A: Set up a webcam Use a wireless IP video camera. Buy a Skype videophone. Consider using other monitoring apps.

Q: Place a cloth underneath the bat so the bottom does not get damaged. Use a table clamp to secure the bat so you can strike it easily with a mallet. Slowly test how much power you need to use so you don't damage your bat. Swing the mallet with enough power to leave an indentation in the middle of the hitting area. If it's difficult to see an indentation on the bat, loosen the clamp and hold it up to a light to see if you've made a dent. Repeatedly hit the entire flat area of the bat since a ball may be hit anywhere on the surface. Use the same amount of power you used to make your initial indentation across the face of the bat. The entire process should take about 6 hours. As you increase power, continue making the surface of the bat even so it is flat. Split your time knocking the wood into 10 or 15 10-minute sessions so you don't get burnt out. Test the wood with your fingernail occasionally. At first, your fingernail should leave an impression in the wood's surface, but after you've knocked it in, it will be harder to press. Ask a friend to toss gentle pitches to you with an old cricket ball so you can hit them back with the bat. This helps you detect if any sections of the bat hit unevenly. If they do hit unevenly, go back and strike the areas with a mallet again. Using a new ball could damage the bat if it is hit improperly. Alternatively, put the ball in a sock and tie it to a rope. Put the rope over a tree branch to make a swing. Hit the ball as it swings back and forth.
A:
Clamp your bat down so the flat edge faces up. Hit the middle of the flat area so it dents. Strike the flat face of the bat until the surface is even. Repeat the process with harder hits until you've struck it 20,000 times. Practice hitting soft pitches with the bat.
