Home > Screen-by-Screen Help > Step 5: Manage Gallery > Image tab > About image file compression About image file compression The file sizes of your images can affect the time it takes to upload a Web gallery to a host server as well as viewer download. There are tradeoffs when determining image quality vs. file upload/download times.What compression file size is best? The program default (60) is ideal for all-purpose galleries. For artists and professional photographers, we recommend a compression of 80 as long as larger file sizes aren't an issue. For quick draft galleries, or when download speeds are an issue, you can use compression values below 60. Related topics See also |
