[QUOTE="kanga, post: 480327, member: 9270"]Over the past several years I've gained experience in imaging coins and creating the screen presentation. This is the [U]general[/U] look I want, obverse and reverse side-by-side with the label included: [IMG]http://home.comcast.net/~dcderoo/1-1858-LL-AU58.jpg[/IMG] I want the total image, [U]background and all[/U] sized to fit approximate 3/4th of a screen set at 1024x768 resolution. In other words, uniformity of size. Now the question. [B]Should each coin be presented at the relative size that it exists in the real world?[/B] In other words, a small cent should be shown about 2/3rds the size of a half dollar (real world sizes 19mm vs. 30.6mm)? The silver dollar would be my biggest, the silver 3-cent my smallest. The dollar would fill as much of the screen as reasonable and the silver 3-cent would be about 2.72 times smaller.[/QUOTE]
