If you save the image as a jpeg or gif file, it will be saves as a single image that you can show on the web.

Use File->Save As to save a JPEG or GIF. No slices.

I believe the previous poster wass telling you to "Save As" Jpeg, NOT "Save for Web" as Jpeg. This saves the entire image without slices. You may want to open the new Jpeg to optimize more in Save for Web.

Alternatively; if your slices are perfect, already saved as slice images and you don’t need to make adjustments, additions, etc.; then just go to View/Clear Slices. *I wouldn’t do this unless I intended to start from scratch if there are changes to be made.*

Alternatively again; just click the top layer, select all and "Copy Merged", then paste into new document and save for web. This gives you a new working space where you can’t possibly mess up the original file.

Now, if all you have is slices and no master file…. Why?

If you do this, the quality will be degraded even more.

JPEG uses "lossy" compression. Image quality is deliberately degraded to make the file smaller. This degradation is cumulative–if you open the image and save it again, the image quality is degraded more. You should definitely avoid re-saving as JPEG repeatedly.

Very true. I wish (using PS 6.0.1) that when you Save As Jpeg you got an optimization window as with Save for Web so you could visually decide how you want it to display.

Then again, if browsers would just support PNG-24….
