The problem is in how you built original image.
Graphics classes in CC would be good if you are so inclined - but not necessary if you spend some time reading about images and learning the program you are using (not a put-down).
Sometimes even a photo editing program is not the place to build a graphic image...a lot of times I use Illustrator & then Photoshop..just depends on what I'm trying to do.
Designing for the web is a unique experience you have to be a referee, a designer, and a technogeekazoid

...and have some cool beer on hand sometimes.
Lemme know if you need help...

www.easternshoreartcenter.com/exhibits.htm - at the top,
| the writing Eastern Shore Art Center seems fuzzy also the
| graphic logo lines are not crisp. I am encouraged that
| Adobe PE is excellent becuase that would mean maybe I
| could improve with experience. I played with graphics and
| resized them. I would think that they would appear
| sharper if created bigger and reduced, but in my playing
| around, that did not seem so.
|
| I am impressed with site
www.neighborhoodfinance.org and
| their graphics. They have some small but are still crisp
| I noticed that it is not FP website but uses Visual Basic
| and Visual Studio? Do either one of those pertain to
| making graphics? Do people just scan in images at high
| resolution and place on website? I have tried copying
| graphics from the electronic publication(MS Publisher)
| from the art center and using in website, but the images
| did not seem crisp.
|
| I think I need to take a class on graphics a community
| college!
|
| Thanks!
