Photoshop 7
In this tutorial we are going to cover resizing, optimizing cropping and enhancing images.
“What is the difference between resizing and optimizing?”
- Resizing is when you change the physical dimensions of an image.
- Optimizing is when you change the file size of an image.
“Why would I want to resize or optimize an image?”
- If you have ever created a PowerPoint presentation and it was too large to fit on a 3 ½” floppy.
- If you want to share images on your web page.
Understanding Resolution and Pixels
Setting up your work environment
The first thing you will want to do is set up the work environment. Photoshop's default measurement is in points, but to create images for the web or PowerPoint you'll want to change it to pixels.
