When I ripped it from the original video using DVDBackup, I ended up with 5 separate video files: 2 small .BUP, 2 small .IFO and one large 325MB .VOB file. I'm guessing the .VOB file is the one that has my logo on it. Is there a way to import that file to iMovie, then edit everything but the logo out? > To resize an image in PS, open the image in PS, then go to the menu Image > then Image Size.

The options PS gives me in the image resize box are cm, mm, points, picas, etc. Can you tell me exactly where I plug in that 640X480?
