OK, so I'm a new user, but it's impossible to keep under 125 KB and within the guidlines of at least 500px X 350 px and submit an image that's even worth viewing...I'm talking about the 'Fire Blanket' entry.

Maybe it's just this entry that's so constrained, or is this a general constraint on all the contests? I like big, fat photochops...

I'll submit my entry on my website, it's worth a standalone post...

you're wrong. Its been done here for years.

read more topics and ask people how they do it and things will work out.

My Photoshop V 5.0 doesn't have the save for web constraints system built in.

I'll keep working on other methods...thanks for the pointers.
;D

I've been using PS 5.5 for some time (just got CS2 within the last few weeks) - you ought to be able to get a jpg image quality adjustment through "save a copy" funcition - indicate jpg then use the quality slider to get your file size right - keep an eye on the file size at the bottom of the box when you use the slider. Often a quality of 7 or 8 would do the trick for me

I hear you, Splodge~!

;D

Did it...went to Easy Thumbnails and downloaded the free creator.

Finally I can do the contest!
Thanks for your help...
