> \*Originally posted by jkm \* > \*\*Thanks for the comments guys…Soulty, you are DEFINATELY gonna be in the “kudos” section of the site. \*\* Hehe np dude. 🙂 Just a few thing i noticed recently You allow your flash site to scale when you maximise your browser, don’t do that, you lose some quality in your bitmaps!! :: How big is the swf file? ur sure you compressed it with some jpeg compression in flash? that might be the reason why it taking a while for people to view the website. ---

the smallest size in kb with no visual lose in the image,so play around with the percentages, press the test button to check the image file size and quality preview in the little window, i usually stick to 80 %. What size is the actual bitmap? in pixels? ---

you know jkm, if you started working with 72 dpi and created the image at 1024 X 768 it would of been smaller in file size. But 78.2 is ok, for a big image like that. ::: 72 dpi, is the resolution for on screen graphics. ---

Learning curves… That’s why I got you peeps. I’m a rookie my friend. Thanks for observing so closely. Okay, I reposted …give it a test run…It should load pretty quick. Did I shrink the image itself too much? I plan to add to it, but it did look pretty sweet sitting alone filling the window… [http://www.jmkm.com](http://www.jmkm.com) :hangover: ---

yeah true, it did look nice, big and all, but you can add other elements under that now, and its sharper in quality ---
