Images look blurry in small, medium and large view in ADE

Hi,
I am working on creating an ePub compatible on ADE, iPad, Kobo and Mobi. I have fixed the issue of image overlapping in ADE view by keeping the width as 100%, but the image looks very blurry on ADE.
Does anybody advise?
Thanks,
Sathish

It may sound counter-intuitive, but could you try disabling graphics hardware acceleration? Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You usually need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the "General" mini-tab, uncheck the box for "Use hardware acceleration when available"
If you restart Firefox, is the issue resolved?

My images look blurry when I export or publish my site from Muse. Why and how do I fix it?

My images look blurry, jagged, pixelated and low quality when I publish or export my site from Muse. Is there any way to avoid or fix this problem?

The primary cause of blurring images is the less than Photoshop-quality image downsampling algorithm currently used in Muse (that was compounded in early betas due to a bug in the JPEG compression library we were using at that time). Due to work we've done for Beta 7 to improve image encoding performance we now have the infrastructure in place to enable us to take a much better image resampler/resizer (after Beta 7), so this source of blurring will be addressed.
The other source of blurring is unique to opaque images containing line art or otherwise containing hard edges and large areas of solid color. When an image is opaque Muse will encode it as JPEG (if it's altered in Muse is a way that requires re-encoding). For line art this will introduce JPEG compression artifacts that can be noticeable depending on your eye and the specific image involved.
There are (at least) to ways to avoid these JPEG compression artifacts:
Resize your image before placing and avoid applying any effects (rounded corners, drop shadow, etc.) or doing any cropping or resizing in Muse. If the image is unaltered your original JPEG, PNG or GIF will be passed through unaltered.*
Put at least one pixel of transparency in your original image. (It could be a single 99% opaque pixel.) This will force Muse to encode as PNG. PNG compression is lossless and thus doesn't introduce any compression artifacts. However, an average PNG can be 5 times the size of a JPEG for the same image, so there is an impact to webpage download performance.
*For PSD files Muse has to encode the original PSD data into some web-friendly image format. If an image is resized in Photoshop and placed Muse won't resize/resample the image data, but it will encode it as JPEG or PNG depending on whether it contains transparency.

I cannot figure out how to change the photo size on my iPhone 5s. I was given the choice of small, medium or large the first time I took a picture. Now I have no idea how to change it to medium. Can anyone help?

I cannot figure out how to change the photo size on my iPhone 5s. The first time I took a pic it asked if I wanted smalll, medium or large and listed the pixels. I chose small but am now finding that is too small. Can anyone help me set it to medium now? I can't find any setting for that. I'm a newby to iPhones and have no idea what I'm doing. Thanks for any help you can offer.

By "sending" do you mean sending email?
If so, what app are you using to take the photos on your iPhone 5? Or are the photos from a different source (saved to your Camera Roll from somewhere else, like a web page or Messages)?
My guess is that Mail gives you the option to send different file sizes when it detects you are trying to Mail a really large photo file. The size of photos on the iPhone 5 is really big and some email providers may stop your mail from being delivered if attachments are too large. Thus, Mail tries to help you by offering to resize the photo.
I suspect that if you are sending smaller files, Mail does not bother giving you options to save a smaller version. In fact, I have seen this behavior. So, if the photo is already "small enough", it gets sent as-is.
To my knowledge, there is no global iOS setting for this. Some apps may have different rules, of course.

Having trouble with images looking blurry

Please Help!
   When I save two images in photoshop (save for web, maximum jpg) they both look great on my macbook pro. However, when I upload them to my godaddy ftp, and view on my IPAD, one looks fine and the other looks blurry. They are both the exact same width, how can one look sharp and normal....and the other one look blurry???
NOTE: After ive uploaded to the ftp, when i view on my macbook pro, they are both fine, but when i view on my IPAD, one is fine and the other is blury.

Please help!!!
Thank you,

I am not seeing anything blurry with the first link. My guess is the height is different and your ipad is scaling it. But if your css is set to pixels it shouldn't.

Why does a TIF image look blurry when placed in InDesign file?

Hi all,
I've placed a logo in my InDesign file that I saved out of Photoshop. It appear blurry when in InDesign and I do have it set to high image quality display so that isn't the issue. It is also set as CMYK and I haven't resized it after saving from Photoshop.
I tried saving a jpg so it would be crisper but then I have a white box behind it when placed in the InDesign file.
Any help is greatly appreciated as I need to send it to print but can't let it go until I'm sure it won't print like a blurry mess.
Thanks

Sub-pixel sampling. Read up on it. you are placing your images at odd values and it gets resampled. Can be anything from the image inside the frame, the image frame itself, some styling option in ID...

Upscaled images look blurry, is there a way to sharpen them? In particular, zooming on pages with images that actually contain only text are hard to read.

I am zooming in on my homework in mastering physics. I am using a large screen and sitting far away. It uses a lot of images containing the text I need to read, but when the images are upscaled, they become very blurry and hard to read. A simple sharpen effect after it is resized would fix the problem. Is there a way to do this in firefox? like a command line switch or maybe something in about:config? Thanks

16x16 png image looks blurry in flash mx at an integer x y position

I have few small png images (16x16 px) when I place them on
stage it shoudl look best when placed at an integer x and y
position.
e.g. x=100 and y=50
But in MX it only looks clear when placed at an integer with
.8.
e.g x=100.8 and y=50.8.
In MX 2004 and later it looks best at integer values on
stage, as it should be. I didnt changed anything in the image
properties (smooth, quality, etc).
Is this a known Flash MX issue, any ideas?
Thank you.

Inserting Images - Image look blurry

I have a problem with FormsCentral that I'm hoping someone can help me with.
One of my employers sent me a .jpg logo that I want to use in a form. It looks good when I upload it, but it's too big. When I resize the logo in Photoshop, it still looks good. But when I upload it to FormsCentral, then the logo becomes blurry. Yet it looks fine in Photoshop.
Does anybody have any idea what I'm doing wrong? I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
PJL

Hello Gen,
did you receive the mail I send on this topic? I've never heared back from the Feedback-Team.
We're about to release some questionaires to customers and would linke to use non compressed images - How is the investigation coming along?
Here's the testimage I sent.
And the result in formscentral.
A workaround like linking images doesn't work eighter, because formcentral embedds all images.
Thanks a lot.

Why do my images look blurry when opened in photoshop?

Hi! i was just wondering if i could get some help with a problem i've been getting since yesterday.
Before yesterday morning, my photoshop was working just fine but then yesterday morning when i opened this image.
It would look like this
instead of it looking like the first image above, the thing though is when i export the image from photoshop as a png, jpeg or any other it looks normal again like this.
This is the first time this has ever happened so i'm not really sure about what to do.
I'm using photoshop cs6 and i've also uninstall and reinstall photoshop about 2 times now but it doesn't fix it
so if anyone can help me that would be great.
Thanks.

Yes. They don't make any sense to me either. Are we supposed to be looking at a blank dark gray rectangle, or has the upload process failed the OP ?

Still Image looks blurry when zoomed

Hello, I am using FCP 5 and I noticed that when I zoom in on a picture, even if it's resolution is much larger than 720 x 480, the picture seems blurry. I tried de-interlacing, however it still remains blurry. In the viewer it seems fine, however once I put it into the Timeline to be viewed in the Canvas, it looses it's clarity when zoomed. Any suggestions?

Mark,
Is the project you are working with one that was originally created in an older version of FCP (like 4.5) then upgraded to 5? If so, you might want to try changing your render setting from normal to linear. If that does not do the trick, I would recommend setting up an external monitor. Judge by that- not the canvas.

MacBook with small OSX and large Win partition?

Hi folks,
about four weeks ago I bought a Macbook Air (13 inch) for one of my clients because I heard about being able to run Windows on it. Since then I'm trying to install Windows but did not succeed in partition the system as it is appropriate to me. Windows is running fine and what I want now is a Macbook without any Mac OS on it or with at least only a small OSX partition. But the only thing I can achieve is to create partitions of equal size with bootcamp assistant. I read for hours but could not find out how to make OSX partition smaller. There should be any partitioning tool to achieve that (running on Windows or OSX, where ever). I neither could find out how to create an USB stick that boots Linux and let me use GParted to resize these two partitions.
Could someone shed some light on this? What is the right way to achieve my goal?
Thanks a lot for any hint and regards,
Stefano

Thanks, hatter. I searched for hours. So you have to pay for acquiring something like this? This closed shop principle of Apple just to squeeze the last dime out of my followers really is remarkable and I'm relieved of having nothing to do with it (usually). So I payed now for the task of resizing partitions.
Thanks for your hint and regards,
Stefano

Images look different in Lightroom than in Windows viewer

I just bought a new NEC monitor, but had this problem with my old monitor too. I'm actually guessing its not a monitor issue at all.
When I view and edit an image in Lightroom then export it as a JPG it looks way more red and more saturated in windows viewer than in lightroom. My monitor is calbrated using a Spyder2. Is there a way to make my windows viewer have the same color? I hate having to open another application to review the edits.
Thanks
Chyna

Well, yeah, but you could export in sRGB and get a lot closer.
What’s the old saying? Close only counts in atom bombs?
Saving sRGB may get “closer” but it doesn’t ensure a match. Only using ICC aware applications can get us to that goal. And assuming someone, like myself is using an extended gamut display, something far closer to Adobe RGB (1998), an sRGB image in a non color managed app will look butt ugly. So no, this is not a solution. Using ICC aware software to view your images IS!

Why does my high res photoshop image appear blurry when placed in InDesign and Exported as PDF?

Hi there,
I have a problem I've been trying to solve for days but just can't find the answer anywhere on the internet.
I have a large, good quality photoshop file (2268 x 979 pixels, resolution 300 pixels per inch). When I place it into InDesign, the image appears OK (I've changed my display settings to HIGH) - I then resize it in InDesign to 10% and the file still looks great! Then, when I export it as PDF (high quality print) it looks blurry.
Does anybody know why? The strangest thing is, I've placed other photoshop images in the same InDesign file and they look crystal clear. It is just this one I am having trouble with. I've saved it in the same folder as the other pictures, I've tried placing it as psd. , jpg. , photoshop pdf, png. everything...
The image looks great in both photoshop and indesign, only when exported as pdf it looks awful.
Any help will be greatly appreciated,
Many thanks in advance!
Weronika

It's probably the extreme reduction -- you're throwing away 90% of the image pixels and interpolating, and then using jpeg compression on top.

Image looks different in Photoshop and Lightroom

I started a forum on flickr and I have some issues with my images. I have calibrated monitor but my images look off online even though I saved them as sRGB. Now my image looks one way in PS and then when I finish editing it and save it, I import it into lightroom and it looks different.
Same image, but it looks different.
http://www.flickr.com/groups/photoshopsupport/discuss/72157626443796391/#comment7215762645 5942911

The image on the left in PS looks the same in Picasa Image
Viewer (I selected it to be color managed based on the monitor profile), looks the same in Windows Image Viewer, and looks the same in the thumbnail. The image on the right in LR is how the picture looks when I look at my image in Firefox but in Internet Explorer and in Chrome, the image looks like the image on the left in PS. The image below shows how the thumbnail looks different from the actual picture when it's double clicked and viewed in Picasa. The thumbnail (which shows the subjects having green skin) would be how I saw it online while the double clicked version is how I saw it in PS, even though it was sRGB (I checked the image properties to make sure of the color space).
I have a ATI 5470 GPU on my ASUS 17.3 inch laptop. Not sure about the drivers.

Sending Image attachment Using Mail 7.3 and OS X 10.9.3.

For some reason sending an email with an image attached and when I select the large image size drop down menu it does not change the actual size of the image attachment. Instead it stays the same as the medium image size. In fact the message size remains the same. However I can chafe to small, medium, and actual size but not large! Can anybody help?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

That's what I thought you might have meant, but wasn't quite sure. I think in this case that Mail simply can't make a "large" and "medium" image different sizes. I don't know what Mail's mechanism is for doing this, but I often find the same thing occurring with images I attach. Sometimes there is no choice that works. The image size is just what it was when attached.
I wish I had a better answer for you than, "it is what it is." But I don't think there's a problem you can solve. Mail is functioning as it "normally" functions, at least from my experience.
