Hi, I am wondering what the best way is to go about getting some prints made. (JPG Files)
I have 2 questions really.
1) When I edit a picture (levels, red-eye, etc) and then I go to save it, it brings up the slider with what quality you want… 1-10 (I believe?). Do I always want to choose 10? What exactly does this do? What should it be set for when you want to just publish the pictures on a website? … Ok, sorry… that was a few questions!
2) What is the best way to resize photo’s before bringing them to the store to get printed. I realize that the ratio of a digital picture is 1.3333 where as your normal picture (say 4×6) is 1.5 . I believe in the store, they use some type of program and actually crop all of your photos before printing. I would rather do this cropping ahead of time, so I’m the one who determines what gets printed. Would I do this in photoshop, or some other program? And if it’s some other program, does it change any of the image quality before it saves the new file?
Thanks!
Gary
