I have an entry for Best of 2008. I have finished the editing and I am having problems with the size. I save for web and it shrinks all the way down to 47%. I lose quite a bit of quality. Does anyone have other suggestions as to how I can get it down to 200k without it losing quality.
Also the colour seems to shift when I upload to web. It doesn't look the same as when it is in PS.
If you are not entering I don't mind sending the Big Jpeg file so you can play with it.PM with an email and I will send it.
Help! |

| Reduce the pixel sizes on either side. For example, instead of 720, go to 690 or something |

| Reason your color shifts is that possibly you are not using sRGB. |

Photoshop converts it. But if you edited it in Adobe RGB, you will find color shifts if the colors are out of sRGB range.
You might also give the image a frame - plain white or plain black will help raise the %. It is easily done using canvas size (make sure you pick pixels instead of inches). |

In my experience, most of the time when I get a too-low quality rating on a SFW it is because the image has been oversharpened. Sharpening just astronomically increases the size of JPG files. Sometimes a buzz of Neat Image in selected, don't-need-to-be-as-sharp areas will give you back a LOT of overall quality...
