How to optimize my images?
I want to optimize the images in my blog posts since it is loading very slowly. Due to this my blogs loading speed is very high. I have no idea to optimize the images in photoshop. You can see my images loading very slowly here http://lovecanto.com/how-to-kiss-a-girl-first-time/
Use "Save for Web" options (Alt+Shift+Ctrl+S on Win or Alt+Shift+Cmd+S on Mac). The most basic one is "Quality", where you can choose for example "Very High" or "High" level. Or just enter percentage value manually, 75% works just fine in most of the occasions.

Help- how do I make images ready for web gallery??
Hi,
I am trying to create a photo gallery of images within Bridge using the Adobe Web Gallery feature. I have the images I want to use in a folder.What steps do I need to take to get the images saved in the correct format and file size? Also, what files sizes do you recommend for a web gallery? I need to make medium to large thumbnails & large images (when clicked). Here's what I am thinking I need in terms of getting this right:
use Adobe Photoshop/Bridge to create the gallery
jpg for photos
gif for solid colors
file size under 2MB (full image), under 20-30K for (thumbnails), total size of all images under 50K (no more than 50 sec. to download)
screen size: 984x728
screen resolution: 72dpi
If you could help me in any way, shape or form concerning making my images ready for a web gallery that would be most helpful. And if you can refer me to any resources on making a web gallery that'd be awesome. Thank you!
ashmic19Thanks for the link Curt Y that video is really helpful. After looking through some materials I had I figured out how to optimize my images. So I don't need any help anymore. But thanks to all who viewed this and thanks Curt Y for the video!

this seems easy and it should be, but for some reason i am having an issue. For my class we are suppose to optimize our images,
this should be a simple thing, however, when i click on my image in fireworks and go into the optimize panel and change it, it doesn't
change the image i have selected, but the entire document instead. so how do i make fireworks optimize the image i have selected, instead of the
whole document? (we can't use any other program either, just fireworks, so no PS or anything else)You do your design work and save it to a native Fireworks .png file. This file format is an enhanced version of a standard .png file and contains the additional data for the vector objects, code exports, and other information that is specific to FW. Other programs that read .png files can read FW .pngs, but they will ignore the extra informations.
When you want to produce output for the Web, you need to select an image type and optimize it, based on the image content. Your optimize settings will be saved when you save the FW document, but the document maintains its original data and does not change. It is the output file that gets optimized.
To produce an image for the Web, you use export, instead of save. Personally, I like using the File>Image Preview... menu. From there, I can choose my output file type and the parameters for the file. There's also File>Export Wizard...
If you decide you want to export to one of the .png formats, you need to be careful to export to a different file name from your working FW document, or you can overwrite your master file with a flattened file, losing all your work. I read a suggestion here to name FW documents as .fw.png as a reminder, but you still need to watch what you're doing.
For file formats...
JPEG stands for Joint Photographic Experts Group and this format is optimized for photographs or other images where the variation in color between adjacent pixels is low. When you optimize .jpg images, you have controls for compression/quality and also for adding sharpness.
GIF is a good format when you have line art with few colors. This format uses a palette of 256 or fewer colors, one of which can be fully transparent. This format also can support animations.
PNGs (bitmap) come in three versions. PNG24 is a full-color image with no transparency; the 24 bits are 8bits each of red, green, and blue. PNG32 is a full color image with full transparency; 8 bits each of red, green, blue, and alpha. PNG8 is a limited palette similar to the GIF, but you can have semitransparent colors.
There appears to be a long-standing bug in Fireworks where, if you choose GIF or PNG8, Fireworks may not give you all the colors in your image. You can manually add colors using the eyedropper.
Hope that helps! -
There is the code of my applet in the bottom. To run it you will need bob2.tga file. You can download it from http://maximusheroes.narod.ru/bob2.tga. FPS on my computer is 60. Strange thing when I comment (remove) code between "///1" and "///2" FPS is about 30. Can you please advice how to optimize the applet?

Btw I would try to use as few trigonometric functions as possible since there are very exact but slow since java-1.4. Maybe you find more dirty trigonometry-packages on the net.

How can optimize current movie to have it more smoth motion
How can optimize current movie to have it more smoth motion?
See attachemt to ftp...
Bitmaps little jumps, need to have it more smoth.
Ideas?
AttachedI don't see any small jumps in your file at all. I think it
runs smooth as it is. Though, it all boils down to system
performance and your flash-file probably will play less/more smooth
depending on the system it is played on.
What you can do is to lower the quality of the images as much
as you can before they get too ugly. It is a question of quality
vs. performance.
One other thing to do if you havnt allready is to set "allow
smooth" on the pictures. -

How can I assign image file name from Main() class
I am trying to create library class which will be accessed and used by different applications (with different image files to be assigned). So, what image file to call should be determined by and in the Main class.
Here is the Main class
import org.me.lib.MyJNIWindowClass;
public class Main {
public Main() {
public static void main(String[] args) {
MyJNIWindowClass mw = new MyJNIWindowClass();
mw.s = "clock.gif";
And here is the library class
package org.me.lib;
public class MyJNIWindowClass {
public String s;
ImageIcon image = new ImageIcon("C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/Desktop/" + s);
public MyJNIWindowClass() {
JLabel jl = new JLabel(image);
JFrame jf = new JFrame();
jf.add(jl);
jf.setVisible(true);
jf.pack();
I do understand that when I am making reference from main() method to MyJNIWindowClass() s first initialized to null and that is why clock could not be seen but how can I assign image file name from Main() class for library class without creating reference to Main() from MyJNIWindowClass()? As I said, I want this library class being accessed from different applications (means different Main() classes).
Thank you.Your problem is one of timing. Consider this simple example.
public class Example {
public String s;
private String message = "Hello, " + s;
public String toString() {
return message;
public static void main(String[] args) {
Example ex = new Example();
ex.s = "world";
System.out.println(ex.toString());
}When this code is executed, the following happens in order:
1. new Example() is executed, causing an object to constructed. In particular:
2. field s is given value null (since no value is explicitly assigned.
3. field message is given value "Hello, null"
4. Back in method main, field s is now given value "world", but that
doesn't change message.
5. Finally, "Hello, null" is output.
The following fixes the above example:
public class Example {
private String message;
public Example(String name) {
message = "Hello, " + name;
public String toString() {
return message;
public static void main(String[] args) {
Example ex = new Example("world");
System.out.println(ex.toString());
