QUOTE NEED TO SHRINK THE FILE SIZE? USE TRANSPARENCY Want a killer tip for squeezing even more size out of your GIF Web images? Make something transparent. That's right, if you can pick an area of your image to make transparent, your file size will drop like a rock. For example, if you're putting a logo over a white background and you can make the white area around the logo transparent, your file size will be significantly smaller. The transparent areas are virtually ignored when determining file size, because, after all, there's nothing there. |

I knew about transparancy, but i didn't know that it made it way smaller in size! |

If you want to bring down the size in your image on photoshop, use the image size and birng it down to a size that you like and make siure that the resolution is not to high. If the resolultion is to high, Then you will be taking so time loading the image.

I suggest use Fireworks to shrink image size. It has a better quality than Photoshop.
