Website vs Image Quality

Hi all,
I all i am a complete n00b at flash so this will probably a very simple question lol I am currently making a webstie from a template i bought from templatemonster, I have edited it fine but i am having issues with the image and website quality..
I am producing CGI images for the website which are high quality jpegs, in photoshop they look very crisp but when i then publish the site they come out very poor quality, I checked in the script and the site quality was set to 'best', after some trial and error i found out that when the site quality was put to 'low' the images came out perfectly (i believe that when the quality is set to 'best' it adds some sort of blur to the site, and this was blurring my images) Only problem is now the text on the site is literally unreadable.
So my question is, is there anyway to get the images to look crisp without having to adjust the website quality to low? This isn't a case of me saving the images differently from photoshop as i know they are good enough quality, i just need to get around the blur on the site once the settings are changed to best..
Thanks in advance.

No the images arn't located in the library of the flash file, insted they are located in a folder called portfolio and are then loaded into the .swf once it has been published.. this portfolio folder is located in the same folder as the flash file.
Like i said earlier i am new to flash and not sure how this works at all...
Any thoughts? Could this be the reason?

  • Poor image quality display with low resolution on websites

    I have just upgraded to the new Firefox browser 32.0.3
    Since upgrading I have noticed a severe degradation in image viewing on websites. Images on websites are poor quality and pixelated, as if I were surfing on a slow connection.
    We have fibre optic broadband with DL speeds generally of around 70mbps so that can't be the problem! I have also tested on other browsers and the images appear fine and clear.
    I am currently on an iMac 27" with OS 10.9.5
    Help would be appreciated!
    Thanks

    Hello wildfirepro, any luck if you disable graphics hardware acceleration ?
    You might 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.).
    Then perform these steps:
    #Open Firefox ''Preferences'' window as follows:
    #* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and select ''Preferences'' on your Mac.
    #In the Firefox Preferences window, click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select ''General''.
    #In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    #Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Thanks.

  • How can I lower the image quality on a streaming online video

    Hi,
    I have an old iMac G3 with 500 Mhz Power PC and 1 gig of RAM  and running Tiger OS 10.4.11
    I am trying to watch online streaming news through http://www.rentadrone.org but it is, of course, jerky playback.
    My issue is that adobe flash will not let me change the quality of the video to low because the option is grayed out.
    I know that this iMac was prior to videos becoming common online and I know that I have to sacrifice video quality.
    I can play youtube videos well, as in not jerky, in the 240 image quality and wanted to be able to do this through
    other websites with video. I have disabled Dashboard to gain CPU, tried to play the video through Realplayer and
    changed my Display from millions of color to thousands but I haven't been able to stop the jerking on the video.
    Is there a workaround or other solution?
    Thank you in advance for any suggestions or help.

    Each video website has its own controllers over how much choice you have over quality of streaming.
    However, as you use Real Player, you could wait until the video finishes downloading, then click 'Download' in the RealPlayer Download Agent window and watch it offline, when it should play smoother.

  • Image quality in Preview is extremely low

    Hello,
    I just recently switched to Mac from PC. Since using this Mac, I have had some issues with image quality. At first I thought it was just Photoshop, but I realized that the standard OS preview is also having display issues.
    Basically, if I open an image in preview or in Photoshop to edit, the quality is low, but when I go to "save for web" and view it in the preview box, it looks perfectly normal. Website images look normal, and everything else that is vector looks normal. It's only pictures that are having this issue.
    I have no idea what would cause preview images and photoshop files to look like this.
    Here is a link to a picture of the problem. The left side is what the image looks like in Photoshop (and Preview) and the right side is the "save for web" box showing it looks normal.
    Thanks in advance for any help or guidance someone may be able to offer.

  • How to export a fireworks file to flash while retaining image quality?

    I created a banner for our website using fireworks cs3. Part of the banner has aimation (basically a slide show of 6 photos). I've tried to export the files by saving the frams to files, but when I do this, the image quality really gets bad. When I try to change the export settings and change the dither, everything but the last frame looks better and the last frame looks like a yellow color is splattered all over it....I've tried just saving the file as an .swf file but when I do so, the file doesn't work when I insert it into my web page, it doesn't work.  Is there a better way to do this?  Can I export as something else then import into flash and still retain my image quality?  Thanks for any input and help!

    How are you inserting the file?

  • Quicktime image quality problems in FCP

    I'm trying to do a basic video tutorial on how to use a tool on my website. I captured the movie from my screen with a product called SnapZpro which saved the movie as a QuickTime movie. However when I import it into FCP to do some mixing with other graphical elements, add some transitions, edit the audio and add some other screen shots, the image quality is awful. I have rendered the file & also exported with no compression and still no luck. The original QT movie capture is crystal clear. Any ideas on how to get the original quality or other ideas on good ways to create a tutorial where a fair amount of editing needs to be done?
    Thanks,
    Ed

    You can spend several productive hours using the search function. We see this topic and variations often. Try searching for SnapzPro, tutorial, screen capture, stuff like that.
    We don't know what your movie settings were for your captures using SnapZ nor do we know your sequence settings within FCP. The most likely explanation is that there are some dramatic changes between the two. Your SnapZ clip is being scaled to fit the timeline and this can have a severe resolution compromise.

  • Image quality in Flash animations

    I notice when I run animations in the flash player, the image quality because very pixelated and blocky when I enlarge the animation.
    I need my website to scale to different screen resolutions, so this can be a problem. Is there any way to make images smoother when the flash file is enlarged beyond it's native resolution?
    I really need to know since my website has to scale to a LOT of resolutions.

    Dont think there is any concrete solution for this,
    Try using bitmap smoothing, it might help till some level.
    Another workaround would be, use large size images and scale them down to your current native resolution (size). This might help if you find an intermediate resolution and use imageof that resolution.

  • Creating PDF from File is creating poor image quality.

    When I combine files to one PDF I am receiving terrible image quality. I'm importing PNG's and I set my preferences to maximum PNG quality.

    I tried to "print" my file to the Adobe CreatePDF Desktop Printer and control the image settings from there, but it keeps failing.
    when you say "it keeps failing" what does this mean?  Do you get any error message or messages?
    The best way to create any pdf file from Microsoft Office package is to print to the pdf file as you have already tried.  If this fails for any reasons you can save the file in PPT or any Office packages as PDF as long as you have the latest versions of Office - 2007, 2010, or 2013.  For Office 2007 you had to download an Add-in from Microsoft website to "Save as" pdf but 2010 and 2013 are automatic.
    Hope this helps.

  • IWeb and image quality of Photoshop jpegs

    i am constructing a website consisting of my photography... with color shots i am noticing a dramatic 'flattening' of the vivid nature of my shots in iWeb as opposed to how they appear on photoshop... i believe i have followed the photoshop process properly... so there would be an image now at 72 ppi about 6 inches by four inches as a jpeg looking pretty vivid in photoshop on my screen. when i bring this over, via iPhoto, into iWeb image quality is lost... of note as well though is that this image does not look to hot in iPhoto as well... not sure then what forum this question belongs in... any quidance at all is appreciated.

    hi Tomas... thanks for your response... i did drag a photo from my finder directly into iweb and within the iweb program it looked great but as soon as i published i lost saturation... odd... so i can avoid iphoto now, which is great, but something is happening in the process still... i have turned off the iweb image optimization and played with tiffs and jpegs within photoshop to try to get the final image to come out as intended... if you have any other suggestion please let me know... thanks again for your post... i will check out your link.

  • Photoshop slice tool and Save for Web image quality. Will it affect prints?

    I want to slice a large photo into multiple smaller (4x6) printable photos to arrange in a 12x12 inch scrapbook binder pocket (made of of 4x6 pockets). I need to order separate 4x6s online so tiling in the print options is not what I need.
    The slow way I know to do this involves cropping and saving each section (maybe even recording this action to do batch processing). However, another way is to use the slice tool to quickly divide up the sections then "Save for Web...". I can adjust some parameters, but I'm afraid there are other automatic adjustments that I don't want. For example, all images are converted to 96 dpi instead of the original 300 dpi. The number of pixels remains the same so I don't think there will be problems printing the picture.
    My question is: does the Save for Web function reduce image quality in any way when printing (it is obviously intended to be used to optimize images for websites)? Are there settings in "Save for Web" that would optimize for high quality prints? Is there a better way to tile an image?
    I have not yet compared any prints.
    W7
    CS6

    If you understand that something will do something you do not want like convert to 96 DPI as long as it does not resample you can always convert back to 300 DPI. If you want 6 4x6 to form a 12x12 you must start with an square 1:1 aspect ratio image. That you resample to 12"x 12" at 300 dpi if you want 6 4x6 300 dpi images.
    If the original images vary in size and aspect ratio you need to crop them square or add two borders to make them square.   The rest is easy to do with an action.
    The square crop or border can be automated with a little scripting.  If crop  a center crop would be the route to go. My crafting actions package contains  more the a dozen scripts to be used within action. One is a plug-in script that would make center cropping a snap two steps menu File>Automat>AspectsRatioSelection followed menu Image>Crop.  Add a menu Image>Size set side to 12" and resolution 300 DPI and you have your  starting 12"x12" 300 dpi image.
    Flatten the image make your first 4"x6" selection copy past to add it as a layer. Select the background select the next 4x6 area copy and paste repeat that process till you have added the 6 4"X6" layers. Then delete the background, Select all, target all layers and use layer>Align layers to selection>Top edge then repeat align to left edge. the Image>Trim you have your 6 4x6 in a stack.   You can the use Adobe Photoshop Script Export Layer to file.   All automated in an action however the last step Export layers to files is interactive for its not a plug-in script. So if you batch it you keen to hang around to interact with the last step for each image.
    You could also write you own export script that would not need human intervention to use instead of Adobe interactive script.

  • Image Quality Checking

    Hai all,
    I want to develope a java software that conducts a number of image quality tests. All these tests should be compatible with x9.37 standard.
    That means I want to compare the pixel values against the value set by the x9.37 standard. But I don't know these values.
    Can anyone help me for finding how to go about it? Please it is an urgent work. I want to do the following tests on images:
    Too light,too dark, bars/streaks,out of focus,folded edges,skewed image,piggy backed images etc.
    Regards,
    Cochu.

    Does this only happen with images loaded from the internet?
    Does this also happen if you open a locally stored image that you know is good?

  • Image Quality of Nikon D800 in CS5

    Hi,
    I initially had the issue with Photoshop CS5 not being able to recognize RAW files from my Nikon D800. I managed to sort-it-out by installing the RAW Plug in 6.7 hense now CS5 opens up the RAW files from D800.
    However, now I'm faced with the different issue.  I see a significant drop of image quality when RAW s are opened in CS5. The images looking stunning with in D800 display screen looks very dull and flat when opened in CS5. No where close to the brillient colors shown in the D800 preview. Has anyone expirenced this, please?
    I'd really appreciate you input to sort the issue out.
    Many thanks in advance
    Cheers

    The image you see in the display screen of the camera is a jpeg image (cameras can not display raw image).
    And yes this is a common problem, as the raw image is just that, raw.  You have to adjust your settings in ACR to reflect your tastes and then set that as the default setting.

  • Image quality of T4i vs D5100

    My son bought a Nikon D5100 while we were in Japan I took my Canon T4i. And did notice that his pictures especially in low light appear to have much less noise. Then I came across this website: http://snapsort.com/compare/Canon-Rebel-T4i-vs-Nikon-D5100 
    That claims that the image quality of the D5100 is better than that of my T4i. Any thoughts on this?
    "Much better image quality
    80.0
    vs
    62.0
    Around 30% better image quality"
    "Cameras don't take pictures, photographers do."

    You'd be a better judge of the IQ of them than me since I don't shoot Nikon & likely won't unless they start making lenses to meet my needs (no lenses of the same quality as the older 35-350 L, 100-400 L IS or 28-300 L IS) so although IQ is a factor in deciding what to buy so is the rest of the system of parts needed such as lenses, strobes etc. Also be advised that many sites cater to their sponsors (advertisers) when doing reviews so one has to really know all of the testing methods used to be sure they are as identical as possible BUT since you can't swap the lenses between the different bodies an important part of the test may effect the results. 
    I'll assume you're comparing Jpg's rather than processed RAW files and that's another variable because every manufacturer tweaks their software to produce images that THEY find pleasing. Some prefer stronger greens, others prefer nicer skin tones, or nicer blues for the sky etc. Also note that you can set some of those parameters in your menu system, but I doubt many do. You can change sharpening & saturation, brightness & contrast very easily & experiment to see what's more pleasing to YOU. 
    I've borrowed this from the signature of a member of another photography forum I belong to & strongly suspect it's an accurate quote but I haven't verified that.

  • Determine/Reset Scale of Linked Graphics - Maximize Image Quality

    Hi, we're currently using Illustrator CS4 for website comps to quickly mock-up pages for our clients to sign-off (we've explored using Fireworks, but there's just some major things missing that we need in regards to typography, global swatches, etc.).
    But we would like to generate some final images from these files as well for the sake of efficiency, as I believe Illustrator is 'supposed' to use the same Save for Web interface as Photoshop. It's just very efficient for us to have our slices designed, setup, optimized and named in this same master document.
    But I ran a test comparing the results when generating a final JPEG from Illustrator vs. Photoshop using the same exact settings, and on a file that was 100% of final size. But the Photoshop file was significantly sharper. So I investigated a bit more and found out that the image was scaled just a bit in Illustrator (maybe 110% or less). When I got the image to be as close to 100% as possible in Illustrator, the differences were negligible.
    - So what is the quickest/easiest method of resetting an imported image to 100% of the actual size in Illustrator?
       I look at the Transform palette (where I would see the scaling in InDesign), but it doesn't tell me anything. I had to look into the Link Information in the links palette to find the scale, but I can't change anything from there.
    - Any other tips for keeping linked files looking as good and sharp as possible all the way through the process to Saving for Web?
    - If the original image has been retouched and optimized (it's a high quality image) in Photoshop before importing into Illustrator, 'SHOULD' the results from Illustrator match Photoshop when using Save for Web and the same settings?
    THANKS! It is much more efficient for us to save our graphics from Illustrator, but we can't risk losing image quality in the process.

    Yeah, I see that as long as the image has a resolution of 72dpi, it does come in at 100% of size. ..
    For what you want to achieve  you are right, sort of, but your statement is wrong.
    Images are always placed at 100% size as indicated in the info when you double click the links in the Links palette. However you have to understand what size means here. If the image has metadata containing dimensional information then that is the size in Illustrator. For example if the metadata says 5 x 5 inches it will be placed as 100% with that size according to the Illustrator's rulers regardless of what the pixel resolution of the linked image is - it can be 5 or 5000 pixels per inch. If the images don't have metadata describing the dimensions then Illustrator assumes that 72 pixels are 1 inch and will place the image with that size at 100% scale. For example if the image is with 720 x 720 pixels, Illustrator will show it as 10 x 10 inches at 100% scale.
    With work for the web you are most interested in the pixel size of the images and objects. Change the units in File > Document Setup to Pixels. But have in mind that these are 72 pixels occupying one inch on the ruler in Illustrator and not the pixel resolution of the linked images. So, the Transform palette showing the selected images or objects with pixel dimensions will matter if you save for the web or export to a raster image file format where you can specify the pixel dimensions of the image. The pixel dimensions in Illustrator will not matter at all if you print the illustrator file in which case the resolution of the linked images will be used - not the pixel space they occupy in Illustrator. But for the Web all that matters is the pixel dimensions in Illustrator. So if you want the ppi (pixels per inch) in Illustrator to match the actual ppi resolutions of the placed images (links), you have to save all images from Photoshop as 72 ppi or remove their metadata. This will ensure that no resampling occurs when you save images at 100% scale from illustrator for the web .
    In Photoshop you can use its automatd batch processing features to change quickly the ppi of multiple images.
    As for the resampling of the scaled images I believe Illustrator and Photoshop use the same algorithms

  • S100/S110 Image Quality

    Hello I am Debating between s100 and s110
    one thing that concern me is that I saw some reviews saying there are differences in image quality between the two although its using the same lens/processor and so on. expamples:
    "We did feel that high ISO performance (and image quality in general) was actually a slight step backwards from the S100"
    "In comparison to its predecessor, the Canon S100, the S110 boasts an upgraded sensor but our tests show a slight decrease in print quality across the board. Where the S100 produces a nice, crisp print at 13 x 19 at base ISO, the S110 is soft at 13 x 19 and, while maybe acceptable for wall display, we feel more comfortable recommending it for use at 11 x 14 for ISO 80 up to 200."
    "The lower overall image quality across the ISO range compared to its predecessor is a little disappointing"
    and mostly:
    "There is slightly high barrel distortion at wide-angle (1.1%)" 0.6 at s100
    How it could be there are such a differences? Thanks
