Re: [photoshop-beginners] shrink image to put on web

You don't have to crop any of it , unless you want to change the proportions. Go to "Image Resize"

Have "Resample Image" checked.

In the "Pixel Dimensions" area, reduce the number of pixels in one of the dimensions. As long as "Constrain Proportions" is checked, the other dimension will change correspondingly.

Subject: [photoshop-beginners] shrink image to put on web

 

Hi,
I received an image I'd like to post on a Joomla web site. It's about 800k. I'm able to reduce the resolution for a smaller file size in "Image Resize...". However, after uploading the image to the site, it shows up very large left-to-right & top-to-bottom. How would I go about shrinking it to a more appropriate size, without cropping away much of the picture? Is there a way to do this?
(using Photoshop Elements 7). Thank you.
