marahmarieTitle says it all - well, almost.
I'm using a narrow-width layout made waaaay back in 2009 and I still love it - but I don't much love its narrow width. I'm looking to pay somebody via Paypal or other similar method somewhere in the area of $10 to open up their copy of Photoshop and make me bigger versions of the background images I use on my layout right now. I've tried to do this myself with Paint.NET but I suck I just can't figure it out- the images come out grainy, fuzzy and weird looking. I've also tried most CSS tricks known to man but nothing has worked right or looked right, at least not so far.
Someone in my Circle has suggested I try running the images through GIMP, and I probably will if no one bites, but I'd just rather have someone who knows Photoshop help me get this done the right way.
Dimensions and other details...
Guess I should have mentioned all this to start with, but anyhow, this is based on what I wrote to someone on fiverr just now (with additional edits for DW based on my conversation with ninetydegrees below) along with my request:
I want the post entry space to be about 650px wide (measuring from end to end and including the margins and padding it is currently set at about 552px wide), 140px wide for each gutter if possible, and 250px wide across the sidebar (same as it is now). To edit or remake the background image for the post space probably means resizing the sidebar, header and footer images, too (because the top of the sidebar image currently attaches to the bottom right of the header and to the footer). I'm asking that all of the images stay the same colors and look as they are now and that the total page width does not exceed what it's at now (so in other words, I don't want a scroll bar on the bottom of the page because now the images make the page too wide to display full screen). But I want to keep at least one full inch of gutter on either side of the post entry space and sidebar.
Hope that's not all too much to ask...Thanks in advance!
