You can't corrupt what is already saved there. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bob.dino 1 #4 July 18, 2005 Yup, but then you can't edit it either . The problem with using JPG for image storage is that editing and re-saving the image results in a measurable quality loss. So, until you've got that image in its final form, use a lossless format such as PNG, TIFF, or PSD. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was just giving another example. :^) I save both my original pictures on a CD (may move to DVD next) and also the 'finished product'. If I want to edit more, I do it off these. ltdiver Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are footprints on the moon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
