Re-size for web

[KimMoore]

Hi Damien,

So I understand this, I want to re-size this image for web.

I have adjusted the longest side to 960, but what do I do with the short side?

 

[KimMoore]

I think I just noticed it changes on its own...

But when saving as a jpg, what things do I tick on the right hand side.

[Damien Symonds]

No no no.  Never use Jpeg2000.  Only normal Jpeg.

[KimMoore]

I don't seem to have that option?

All done.

Now the correct way to save it from here?

[Damien Symonds]

Oh crap.

[Damien Symonds]

For what purpose are you saving?

[KimMoore]

The charity will use them on fb first, then newspaper.  but happy to do fb first.

[Damien Symonds]

For FB I find that quality 11 is best.

But of course you must resize first.

And sharpen!

[KimMoore]

I skipped the sharpening bit (only because that is completely different since updating photoshop & I'm about to go back & re-read this, but they need the photos)

I re-sized to 2048 pixels longest side & save jpg 11.

[Damien Symonds]

Great.

[KimMoore]

Whoops, sorry I skipped the noise part because that was different & thought if I don't deal with the noise no point in sharpening.
