Is it better to compress images for the web using Photoshop’s Save for Web, or to just save the images as jpegs with quality of 100, and compress the files in Flash?

Good question about compressing in Flash. I’ve wondered the same thing. Generally I compress at 60 in PS and then allow Flash to do it’s thing too. Not sure I’ve noticed a problem with doing it that way. Flash seems to have it’s own unique compression and so far I like it.
