n0tbugme Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 I'm new to photo manipulation and are doing some simple jpeg cropping using the rectangular select tool and resizing according to what i wish to crop. I'm however a bit baffled because after i select the area to crop, paste into a new image and save it as jpeg with 90% quality the images occasionally come out bigger then the larger original image. Why is this? And how can i make it so they come out smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 By "bigger", you're referring to the file size?

Sarkut Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 If the original image was compressed at a higher level than what your 90% quality save gives, it could explain why the file size is bigger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
