Hi Marty,

If what you mean by 'image resolution' is what dpi to set for, then you should know it's not important for screen images-- as they're displayed at typically whatever the resolution of the monitor is. If I'm not worried about printing, I just set the dpi to 72. The important part of the equation is how many pixels wide and tall your image is. You can set those in the Canvas Size dialog under the Image menu.

So set the dpi for 72 (typical screen resolution) and set your canvas to whatever size you want for the image and you're good to go.

DPI typicaly only comes into play when printing.

PNGs have a small difference in gamma cross platform, but JPG's don't. I tend to use mostly PNGs.

HTH,
Chipp

I'm putting the finishing touches on a project and have started designing the graphics (using Photoshop), but I can't seem to find anything about image resolution. It sounds like the .png format is a great way to go. These images will just be for the screen- background & icons, not for printing. And is there a difference for cross-platform compatibility?
