Re: optimizing images for the web - sharpening

Hello Lou,

>>Sharper.

>Are you working on a previously sharpened image 

Well, the answer is maybe, to be precise.  I'm working on a completed
image, it may or may not have sharpening applied to it. 


>and/or do you do any sharpening after the resize before saving? 

Not any more since I began using Bicubic Sharper.  Everything looks
real good with this method.  I used to reduce in steps with Bicubic in
PS7 doing small amounts of USM at each step, but I'm finding this
Bicubic Sharper in a single step is just as good or better - and a LOT
faster.


>Your web images look quite nice.

Thank you, it's gotten better over time and I've gone back and redone
some of them.  

Regards,
Clayton
