fatkinson Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Could someone tell me the best way to use Paint.net to take a digital photo and convert it to use on a Web page? Obviously full photo quality is too much overkill. Regards, Fred Atkinson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy Man Dan Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 For photos, JPEG is often the best option as it allows for the most flexible compression <-> quality ratio. When you go to save it, select JPEG from the Save as Type dropdown after you give it a name and click OK. This will bring up the Save Configuration dialog for JPEG compression. The Quality slider lets you choose the compression level - the higher the setting of the slider, the better the quality and the larger the file size will be. Setting this slider lower will lower the file size but will result in compression artifacting. There is a Preview Size readout above the image preview window that will tell you how large the final file will be. The image preview window will let you see the file quality at the given compression. It's up to you to balance the desired file size with the desired quality. This number changes for every picture, since some with greater color variance begin showing heavy artifacting sooner.

fatkinson Posted September 15, 2007 Author Share Posted September 15, 2007 Thanks. I think that that will do it. I saved one as thirty-five per cente. It came out as 17 kB and the quality was quite good. Regards, Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
