....why do you MORONS keep arguing against shit that I NEVER SAID!
Look, Stupid...figure this out, all I'm saying is that if the DPI is
100, then the PPI is gonna be 100...that's it, that's all I'm saying.
And as such you can use them interchangeably. If someone tells you
that an image is 72 PPI then YOU KNOW WHAT THE DPI IS! I'm not saying
fuck all about how it's going to print or how it's going to look on
the screen I'm ONLY TALKING ABOUT THE BASE NUMBERS.
Think of it like this....10 albums on cassette tape are equal to 10
identical CDs of the albums...not in their SIZE, obviously the CDs are
smaller than the cassette tapes, but in THE NUMBER OF THEM. What part
of that are you MORONS not grasping? I mean, it's not like I'm
speakin a funny language here, plain simple sarcastic English last I
checked.
