My computer is custom-built. I have a 450 gig hard drive with oodles of ram and am using the latest PS; currently on Vista Ultimate but switching to XP Pro SP 3 in a few days.
I normally work on tifs and/or psds, and then save as jpegs at the size needed for the job. Now for once someone has sent me some photos as jpegs that need serious editing–two long cracks and a lot of dust. There’s no problem in dealing with this, but should I do all of the editing and a final sharpening of those jpegs and then save once, or is the loss of quality from frequent saving a myth and can I then save each as I go along with editing?
New question I’ve always wondered about: In my normal routine, I sharpen my tifs as a last step before converting them to jpegs. Is this the way to do it, or should I be sharpening my jpegs as a last step?
