Don't resize your images in the web editor. Set the size in your photo
editting software with a resolution of 72 dpi, then import the image into the
page.

If you are resizing in a photo editting program, keep in mind it is always
better to start off with the largest picture you have. It is better to scale
down, rather then scale up. When you scale up to enlarge, you are also
enlarging the imperfections and pixelation in the image.

Deluxe, etc. Any suggestions? >>
