This is kinda silly, but I have to figure this out sooner or later. Maybe even for tonight!
So, when we say 300 DPI, does this mean a grid that is 17.32"x17.32" when we are creating artwork? Where 17.32x17.32=300? So, a marquee that is 24"x8" in size would need a PNG file that is 416x138 pixels? The numbers alone say no to me.
Or would that 300 dpi mean that a 24"x8" marquee needs to be 7200x2400 pixels in size?
I think I answered my own question but I'll post what now seems to be a stupid question anyway.
