Hi all,
Some pictures of my favorite plane...the Spitfire by RealAir.
Compression really took its toll on these pics. I use Photoshop to resize the pics, can anyone suggest something else to get better results? Enjoy the pics!!

I consider Photoshop the best
Go to Adjustments, Image Size.  And if you're at 1024X768, and change it to 800 x 600, it really helps.  Also, if you can, save the jpg as a higher quality.

Good choice of plane. Personally I use PaintShop Pro 8, of course I've got a rather elderly machine so my results aren't the best....

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Great pics.

In Photoshop 7 and CS if you save for web, then set it for JPEG and Quality from 50 - 70, this should be fine for most screenshots. At the bottom left there is a guage for the final file size. Not 100% sure this was available with version 6......
