ugh...First you need to resize it. Then you have to make it transparent. What scale is that drawing? You'll probably need to do some work to it once you resize it.

You should draw on a white background, so it will be easier come time to make it transparent.

You need to resize it to the right scale first. (1 pixel = 1 meter)

you also may need to make a slot for it if it is not already represented in the diagram; go to the drawing request sub forum and find the building upload requests thread.

First of all it is not to scale (1 pixel, 1 meter) a 400 footer would not be 400 pixels high.

What program do you use to draw this.

The correct dimensions would be 122.0 meters tall by 17.7 meters wide.

I'm not good at meters, just feet. But yeah, I know the drawing is correct because the government told me that it was 400 feet tall and 58 feet wide. You sure thats right though, Buck?

Just resize it to what Buck said. It's of course correct.

It's looking pretty good btw.

Yes, very detailed. Nice job. But yes, all diagrams on the website are at a 1 meter = 1 pixel scale. Take the number of feet and divide it by 3.28 and then you got the height/width in meters.

just make it so when you resize it, it goes to the dimensions buck provided, not the feet.
