Resolutions Question

This ones for the experienced PS users. By default, the resolution is 72ppi. I was wondering if anyone had experimented by changing this to a lower or higher number and if the results were better or worse. Please share. Thanks.

If you're working doing work to be printed, set it at 300. 72 is fine if you're just using it for a web site or something though.

Which would give the best for web graphics (while keeping a fair file size?

72 is fine if you're just using it for a web site or something though.

If you do it larger than 72 and put it on a web site, it will just be really big. The quality will not improve. Monitors cannot display more than 72, so they just make it bigger. But if you are printing it, you need to use a much higher resolution so that it doesn't look pixelated when printed.

Okay. I get it now. Thanks a lot. BTW: You wouldn't happen to know how I can delete my avatar... would you?

Looks like you already did... Unless you mean your sig, which you can delete from the Profile menu at the top of the forum.

No I just deleted the url to the avatar. How do I get rid of it so it doesn't keep up displaying a red X?

Put this in the avatar field:

Thanks a bunch. BTW, I love your site - looks so soothing.

Thanks.
