Well I tried that approach with the client and they were very well extremely clear they are not going to do that . They want the website to do it for them.

Prep them first with a photoshop action. Have the customer take the images from the CD and run them through a photoshop action to resize them to the max size used on the web site. You will have to apply some sharpening in photoshop also so plan to use the un-sharp mask filter in the photoshop action. Then upload the images to your app. You will have to explain to your client what is going on... no software can take large images and reduce them without some tweaks (sharpening) to make them look good. -----Original Message----- From: Adkins, Randy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2007 9:46 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF / Alagad / Photography Questions Thanks for the comments. I will see if Alagad has a sharpening option. If not, I may have to change to ImageCR. Just have to see if the hosting provider will install it. If not, may have to change to a new provider. -----Original Message----- From: Chad Gray [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2007 9:42 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF / Alagad / Photography Questions ImageCR works great. We use it for our photography studio's proofing web sites that I built. It can handle the large images you are talking about and caches the resized image so it does not have to be processed every time the page is requested. It also has a sharpen setting if you find that the images are bit soft. Any time you take large images and reduce them you are tossing out a lot of pixels and you will need to add some sharpening to them. This is true with any image resizing program. -----Original Message----- From: Adkins, Randy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 5:21 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF / Alagad / Photography Questions What kind of resolution (crisp look) can you obtain using ImageCR3 for a 19MEG file? If it can keep a sharp look for the resizing of the image, then it will be great! I am downloading/installing and testing it now as well. -----Original Message----- From: Justin Scott [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, August 06, 2007 4:55 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CF / Alagad / Photography Questions > 2. If you convert the photo for the client do you use Alagad, another > web graphics tag, or do you use Adobe Fireworks/Photoshop and convert I have used CFX_ImageCR from Efflare (version 3) in the past with excellent results.
