Hey guys I need some help with reducing images. I use Photoshop and convert all my images to smart objects so the quality stays the same when I resize, but the file size is always way too large. I always have to cut the quality sometimes in half! Its very frustrating when I put a lot of work into my art and charge a price that is fitting, but when I resize the quality gets so bad x(
And I've seen some pretty complex art be crystal clear on here so I know it can be done lol so any tips or methods that could help are greatly appreciated!

This image should work for you.
What I do is have the image 500 x 500. Go to file --> save for web & devices.
This allows you to change the file size right there as you are saving it, and it will save it as a jpeg. |

I honestly dont see much difference between the OG and resized to be honest.
We all have to deal with it. Ive had to drop pieces into the 40s before. But a general rule of thumb, the more limited color palette you use, the less KB the final piece will be. |

You can barely read the credits on the resized... But thanks everyone, it seems I'll just have to live with the image a bit blurry :/ And try to make all my art close to the same color lol |

It does work I just lost some quality. I was wondering if there was a way to shrink images without making the blurry |

When i shrink, i duplicate the layer, smart sharpen the top layer, and then lower opacity to about 50%. It helps kick the quality back up.
Have you tried? :D |
