Creating Web-formatted Images

  1. If your image is at 72 dpi and you’ve made all your edits (color correction, cropping, resizing), you're ready to save it as a JPEG or GIF.
  2. Go to File > Save For Web. A window will open that lets you preview different GIF and JPEG settings before you save.
  3. You can select either the 2-Up or 4-Up tabs. The 4-Up tab gives you four previews, as shown below. In the upper left, you have the original image.
  4. Select any of the other three previews and choose one of the pre-defined web settings from the Settings drop-down menu to apply it to the preview.
  5. Try applying different settings to each preview. Notice that each preview also shows you the approximate download time for the image at a set modem speed. Experiment with settings for each preview to find the one that gives you a good-looking image and a small file size. You can also alter the compression settings of any pre-set compression by changing the options shown in the Settings box. This will affect the quality of the image.

  1. Once you've found a setting you like, click on it. A black box surrounds the preview. Click the Save button.
  2. Navigate to the location on your computer where you want to save the image, give it a name and hit Save.
  3. The image is saved as a copy. Your original image in Photoshop has not been changed to a GIF or a JPEG.
