|
|
I created the attached banner in Photoshop CS5. I can tell once I put the images in the banner that their quality wasn't retained. So by the time I import it into Dreamweaver it looks even worse once it's stretched. It's not horrible, but the quality of the original images is still lacking. |

Hey,
Find out what size the banner is being stretched to and make it for that size.
It will look bad being stretched unless it's designed to be.
You can convert the images to smart objects when you first import them into photoshop which allows them to be transformed back and forth to smaller than original sizes more than once.
Saving for web as a jpeg file will reduce the images quality as well.
This cant really be avoided, quality vs size.
Just 'putting the images on the banner' shouldn't reduce the quality of them. |

I will try the smart objects conversion when I get home. I'm new to photoshop and find myself googling everything. I'm learning; just not as fast as I would like. Thanks for your help! |
