It also looks it was converted to a JPEG format, so if possible could you upload it looking fresh, and the white line by mining can that be fixed too? Great job weird person this is useful.
Well, I specifically posted this for reference purposes. As I said, I have the original Excel file if anyone (including the staff) would like it.
As for the image quality of the picture, I literally took a screen shot of the top half, copy/pasted to MS Paint in Vista (the built in drawing program), then took a screen of the bottom half and appended to the bottom of the first picture. Then I simply cut out the parts of the picture that were not relevant (the menu bars and scroll bars and such) so that it was just the chart.
The white line below mining is just the fact that MS Paint is a free program and is not a very good image editor. It does the job but it is not professional looking.
I converted this to jpeg so I could upload it and show it on the forums. If I had just posted a link to an excel spreadsheet, no one would look twice and it would prevent probably half or more of the users of the forums here from even looking at it because most probably do not have a spreadsheet program even installed and I seriously doubt anyone would have gone to the trouble of downloading one just to look at it.
While I was bothered by the white line below mining, I decided not to worry about it. I have the original Excel file which is what I use for reference. It doesnt need to be perfect, it needs to portray the information in a format that is readable by people who look at it.
I may clean it up later, but for now Im going to leave it as it is. I have spent alot of time (the last couple of days) getting it done and I dont really feel like messing with it for the next couple of days. If I do upload a new version, I will change the image in the OP.
