So far I converted the image in jpeg at 15k. I need it less then 10k. By the way Mango excellent job. I wonder where didi you find the people images. I'm not going to get sued, I'm I? Also People of the Universe can I get some feedback on the font size? Do you guys think is small. Should I go 1 size larger? Thanks in advance, again everybody Forgot URL < Message edited by albano -- 4/13/2006 23:42:41 > _____________________________ Mortgage Site Link Exhange \| http://www.truelending.com

(in something like tiff,bitmap, png or other easily accessible lossless format. why does it have to be less than 10k? _____________________________ David Prescott Gekko web design (in reply to womble)

I think you'll find that graphics resizing is one of those things that you either have the right tools for or.... you spend most of your life fiddling around and failing with the wrong tools. I have made the shift from PaintShopPro which I love for designing to Photoshop CS for image manipulation. I use both of them in tandem when working with graphics for the web. Somebody else, I think it was Chris mentioned the Xara package as being very good at reclaiming size without losing quality. It's also a lot cheaper than Photoshop. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to albano)
