I have got comments that my image looks grainy, and it should be smoothened. I resize the challenge images to 640 pixels, Max. File size 150 KB. How can I smoothen images, within these limits? |

It depends on several things,did you use higher iso or is it a crop? these 2 things would increase the grain.As for reducing it you need to use a program like Neat Image or Noise Ninja to reduce it. I find it better to do this before reducing the image size.
Also read this thread for info //www.dpchallenge.com/forum.php?action=read&FORUM_THREAD_ID=277090

Neat Image. Is it available with Adobe Photoshop? Can it be downloaded online? I am using Adobe Photoshop 5.5. |

Free download at Neatimage.com. The free version can only output to jpeg.
There's a plugin version but is compatible with PS7 and up.

Grain and noise are fun!
I always get comments saying my photos are grainy, but I love grain, and noise. But that's just me.
I say if you're happy with the photo, then just keep it the way it is. No need to fix it. |

It depends upon the subject matter.
I repeat my question. Any tutorials please?
