..when you finally get the PSD file you've been asking for so you can try and work out the mess at their end, to receive a file with only one layer.

"that isn't what you needed?"imbecile - or an illustrator file with a 72dpi bitmap embedded. that's a favorite.imbecile

- 72dpi does mean something when the file doesn't state what res it's working at (looking at you, PNG)Nairn
- @PhanLo 300x300 is quite small (you could call it a large thumbnail)SimonFFM

- 300x300px@72dpi contains as much information as 300x300px@300dpi. Only when you print it, your 72dpi image would be 4.16inch wide and your 300dpi image is 1inchmekk
- @evilpeacock - oh yes, i know that well. Time spent Googling for PDF and extracting content - 5 minutes, tops.
Time spent waiting for client?Nairn - just reading these posts...ugh...i feel your pain bro....exador1
