Hi!
I was saving an image for web using Save for Web and noticed something odd. When I first went to Save for Web, the projected GIF file size was about 3 or 4 kb with 64 colors and 100% diffusion dither. However, I noticed that I had forgotten to convert the file to sRGB, so the colors were looking muddy.
I cancelled out of Save for Web, converted to sRGB (Image>Mode>Convert to Profile), then went directly back into Save for Web. But this time, with 64 colors and 100% diffusion dither, my projected GIF file size was 120 kb!
Any thoughts as to why this might be?
Thanks!
Candace
