<HTML><BODY style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><BLOCKQUOTE type="cite"><FONT class="Apple-style-span" face="Georgia" size="4"><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 15px;">Web has no image-optimization feature, which is something I hope Apple will consider for the next version. Many weekend photographers create large digital images, which will download slowly onto viewers’ computers. Large images also take up a lot of space on the .Mac server. Apple says that images are optimized to 800-by-600 pixels, and iWeb does translate non-Web image formats such as Raw and TIFF to the Web-friendly PNG format, but that’s not the same thing as reducing the file size to attain a reasonable download time.</SPAN></FONT></BLOCKQUOTE><BR><DIV>The above is from a review of iWeb on the MacWorld site. I have two novice questions for the group:</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Am I correct that iPhoto does not have the ability to save a photo at lower resolution, so I have to use the photoshop lite software that came with my scanner?</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>Will I want to save photos at 640v480 or at a somewhat higher resolution?</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>By the way, iWeb's templates are pretty cool. But I've noticed some limits in the "embedded" slots for photos to jazz up a page -- they always have to be the shape of the templates, and are cropped to fit. I can live with that, but it's a shame the "magic" isn't even more powerful. But if these things were perfect, I guess we wouldn't shell out money for the annual upgrades.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV>My rudimentary site, constructed over the past week.</DIV><DIV><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><DIV><A href="http://web.mac.com/kisnerjohn/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html">http://web.mac.com/kisnerjohn/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html</A></DIV></BODY></HTML>
