I don't know if this is the correct group to give you the perfect answer....
BUT from personal experience I have found out that in your care may be the only way to accomplish the balance between "form and function" would be to slice the page design in ImageReady and then see if you can save some bandwidth by replacing non essential images with common BG image/color... Any screen captures? _____ From: julliasutton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 12:46 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [svg-developers] Re: designer seeking help! maybe a little bit of both. the problem seems to be with my oval, drop-shadowed buttons. Our clientele likely do not have new equipment, so alternatives like png & svg, or even swf aren't acceptable. But older export options like gif turn out jaggy & lose the shadow. And, since my background image is screened back, any jpeg, even with a low-opacity matched background, shows a hard-edged box around my nice oval. form follows function. still, I'd like a nicely functional, visually pleasing form. any ideas? thanks, really. julia --- In [EMAIL PROTECTED], "Peter Kalev" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > What exactly is the problem?
