Or do you do a scan directly into I scan it at 2000 dpi (higest on our Kodak 2035+ scanner) which is about 16-18 megs. Then I cut it down to 200 dpi at the proper size in Photoshop. Then, when I prepare a photo for the web page, I make it (horizonal) 33 picas (6 picas= 1 inch) and 72 dpi. There's a proram called DeBabbelizer that does a better job of prepping photos for the web. It costs $95 and I haven't figured out how to get it to work for me at work. Some day I'll take the time. I jpeg at 5 for most of my pictures, but these I left at 8 to keep the jpeg effect down. ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch The gene pool could use a little chlorine.
