Part of the web handling secret is the DA 12-24 lens, which is very  
sharp. That was the tool used here. But beyond that, I shoot RAW,  
convert to a Pro Photo colorspace, 144 megabyte 16-bit file (the max  
interpolation for the PSCS RAW converter). I open in PhotoShop,  
sharpen at 261%, 1.5 pixel, threshold 11. Save as a Tiff. Then I  
downsize it to 13 inches on the long side by 72 dpi. I look at it at  
100%. If it needs a bit more sharpening, I usually give it another  
60%, threshold 11, 1 pixel. This file was not sharpened after  
downsizing. I then convert the colorspace to SRGB and do a "Save for  
Web." That's about it, with some variations here and there, such as  
curves adjustments or highlight/shadow fine tuning,  as needed.
