It’s a miracle haha. Went to the support section of the forum (I’m hopelessly not tech savvy) and tried the ImageResizer not really understanding all the different setting but think it worked.

And it worked!

Now we just have to teach you how to adjust photos to show whites correctly.

Not that there's anything wrong with your image, but just so we can appreciate your lovely drawing even more.

Nice work. You have captured the shine of satin very well, and the geometry of ribbons too.

Have you considered doing a companion piece? an 'after' image of the same shoes after wear, showing how beat up the toes get? That could be interesting as a pair.

I'm not too smart regarding the aspect ratios or such, lol - nice drawing!
