RE: [Digital BW] Optimizing Images for the Web

2004-12-22 by Ken Carney

Hi, Steve.  Photokit Sharpener (www.pixelgenius.com) has an output sharpener
for web images at various final sizes, which does a good job.  Most all my
images are b&w, and with PK Sharpener you have to use RGB, but after
sharpening can convert to grayscale if you want to.  Print sizes might vary
from 450 pixels to 800 in the long dimension.  What is the address of your
site so we can see your work? 

Regards,
