Posting Pix on the web

Wed 07-Aug-02 09:37 PM
What can I do to improve the quality of my pix posted on the web? I tried JRP's suggestion of 600 pixels on the longest side but I need to keep the dimensions small for my website.

I am using PhotoShop 5.5. I am also using an Espon 2450 to scan my slides. The original scan looks good on my screen but is huge. I use the save for web option and I end up with a nice small file size that looks fine on my screen but when I post it, it looks like crap.
Here are the specs on one particular pix
Slide 1a - 6" x 3.833" - 300 pixels/inch - 5.93MB
Slide 1b - 4.167" x 2.667 72 pixels/inch - 8 bit color - 52K
You can see the results on here - http://clicks.wordupcontent.com/Gallery/Outdoor/o_index.htm
