Photoshop help needed

[robtattoo]

Can anyone help me please.

I've created a team logo on photoshop, that I'd like printing on the team tops for next year, only problem is that Rhino Sports can only accept JPG/Bitmap images & Hotmail won't let me EMail a photoshop image. Is there any way of converting the image to a JPG format? I can't even host the image on Photobucket for the same reason. As a complete technophobe & confirmed PC dunderhead, I'm totally stuck with this one (Christ, it took me 4 frikkin' hours to make up the image in the first place!!!)

go to file > save as > theres a drop down menu near the bottom that should say summat like .psp or save as type. click on it and you should get a whole selection of file types to save it too...

You have to flattern the image, only then it will save as a *.jpg.

If you don't flattern you don't have that option.

I'd save before a flattern as well to a different file name, as you cannot edit your image layers after. On "Image menu" I think.

I'd convert your quality while your there, for web manageable sizes. "Image Size" > Menu.

Ah I see, saved it as a BMP image. What do you reckon?

ah true im assuming wrongly he's familiar with photoshop like nickboy says its image menu and then click 'merge visible',or 'merge downwards'

with regards to the web manageable sizes id save it again with a different name as rhino will want a different resolution to a web based size

edit - interesting...four hours you say

Go for *.jpg everyone works with it.

Keep your photoshop file as big as you can, so you don't lose any quality.

As for the jpeg it depends what you want to do with it. Around a 1meg is a workable size for web/e-mail etc nowadays.

[robtattoo]

Nah, the really complicated 7.0. With no instructions. Or previous experience.
