Hi Everyone,

I wonder if someone can offer me some help and advice.

I have edited 2 Images in CS3 and want to put them into the TP Gallery so that I can then transfer them to my Project 52, but the smallest I can save them in jpeg format is 227 and 238 kb respectively. How do I get them to the allowed size to enter the gallery?

All advice would be gratefully received.

Resize the width to using Image > Image Size >
Then go to File > Save for web & devices > You can then adjust the quality until you see the file size drop below 200kb. The file size displays in the bottom left. Usually between 92-97% quality depending on image.
 
Thanks Rikki for your help, have managed it I think. May I also ask how I change my Thread Title to include the weeks Theme,

Cheers

Andy
 
If you firstly reduce to 800 px on the longside @ 72dpi, then save at around 10 (no need for maximum as it makes no difference for most browsers) you should then have a file size below 200kb.
 
Replied to your pm regarding this Andy,
Just shout if you have any more problems :thumbs:
 
In the Save for Web dialog, if you click on the flyout option on the right side of the dialog box, there is an option to choose the size of the file, in KB, that you want it reduced to.

That is how I save for POTN. No guess work needed at all.

Ahh.. never realised that. Just checked it out there.
Nice one :thumbs:
