Newbie here. I can do basic things like lighten up a picture and resize it and crop it and a dozen other simple procedures.
Here is my question. I have a JPG photo. I want to work on it, performing several tweaks like I mentioned above, and then upload it to dotphoto and get prints. Should I convert the JPG to Photoshop format PSD before I do all those changes, and then crank it back to a JPG before I upload to dotphoto? I’m concerned that making multiple changes to a compressed format like a JPG will produce a poorer image with each successive tweak because of the compression routine. On the other hand, I am concerned that converting my JPG to PSD and then recon- verting it back to a JPG might also degrade the quality of the picture.
Because of bandwidth and the amount of pictures I need to upload to dotphoto, it’s probably best to assume that I do need to upload a format to dotphoto with some degree of com- pression.
Thank you, Michael
