^ What andy said. I save all mine as jpegs to put in the internet, they are bound to be poorer quality than raw.

JPG will always be lossy but its the best web format TBH.

Along side other photos (on the net) they'll look fine unless you really dump the quality slider :thumbs:

not sharing all of them, just the ones I would like to upload onto the internet and put onto CD for people etc seem to be a bit poor quiality, makes my photography look even worse :lol:

Don't worry about file size, save them as 12s if you must have a JPG. Otherwise try saving as PNG, I find that less 'lossy'.

You could keep them as RAWs though unless you are sharing them for the quality.

I have recently started using the RAW settings to take pictures on my camera. I am using photoshop CS to adjust the raw files. I am finding when I save them as jpg I am losing quite a bit of quality from the image. Im saving them at a grade 8 jpg as want to keep the file size to a reasonable size. Any advice? Thanks :)
