Re: Important Info For All Hosts And Participants.
Hmm, got it I think - tho I'm more confused over the quality.

Up to now, I've Saved to Web on Photoshop, changed the dimentions and then looked for the smallest size file for the quality - hope it's been working.

However I was told at Charmouth I didn't have to do this, the new software coped with setting it correctly - just to Upload and post it - and I tried that!

- Sorry, this obviously was WRONG

Marita - if this has been working, I'd continue with it ......... the size of the file probably doesn't make a lot of difference for those of us on Broadband (or whatever the generic name is!) - it's with dial-up that it makes a huge problem. Sherry tells me the WC software just changes the dimensions, not the compression (the site doesn't seem to mind the large files now - but our personal connections do! )

Got it! Thanks for posting this.

Life has been crazy and I haven't participated in WDEs for a while, so I just now saw this. I usually try to adjust everything so that it's well under 50 KB and the details visible.

Re: Important Info For All Hosts And Participants.
I guess I never responded to this, but I do understand this. I usually save my files in photoshop with a compression setting of 8- it is the lowest number in the compression settings for HIGH quality. (The highest setting in Photoshop CS is 12).
I then use the "Save for Web" option which makes the file a small size for the net. I generally strive for a compression setting of 8 and a file that is less than 100 kb's before I upload to wetcanvas. Seems to work, and I haven't had anyone complain on slow uploads of my work, but if anyone has had trouble, let me know! See you this weekend for the WDE.
