Re: FLASH: Has anyone else noticed this about images on flash?

Sam,

Very good info to know and I thank you for taking the time to work it out and post it.

I have noticed that some pretty funny things like that as well.

 

Summary:

Always give Flash the highest quality in graphics and audio and let it do the compressions??

And PNG's are the thing in images then no?

Anyone agree??  If not . . reasons why . . . ?

Thanx yall.

Hi guys.....

 

1.   I noticed something quite peculiar on flash yesterday and went ahead to proving it so for all image compression proggies. On a pre compressed image (say from ulead smart saver) the image size is larger after compression on flash than a non compressed version of the same.....

 

2.  On a pre compressed image from Photoshop, smartsaver compresed image size is larger than if the image was set at full quality from the beginning...

 

3. Overall, the image has a poorer quality if I used the compressed one than using the original......

 

(By the way, this does not happen with PNG sor GIFs!)

 

Just thought u would like to know.........
