Yes, the image needs to be that sized so detail is not lost
at high magnification. We actually convert these on the fly
to 17k png files @ 768*1109 for that frame
At 340x440, the image is a 6k png & a 9k tif
The whole point should be that you need to try different
formats to see what gives the best quality at the desired
size.
And as a note, resolution doesn't really matter on the web-
it is the overall dimesions that are displayed
: At 400 DPI that image comes into photoshop at 3400 px by
4400 px. Do you
: need it to be that large?
:
: Is this for display on the web, or for people to download
and print?
:
: (if you allow me to change to a web resolution of 72 dpi
and an image
: 340x440, I can get a 10K GIF image)
