I have a high-res psd 3300-x5100 which I need to save as a thumbnail 200px wide and another 300px wide. Both smaller images are png or gif.
I see that saving a high-res gif and shrinking the gif to thumbnail results in poor text quality.
The psd has text in some layers and I’ve found that shrinking the psd image size does an excellent job in rendering sharp text in the smaller image.
Here’s the problem I’d like to solve. Reducing the psd image size brings a risk that I might accidently save the reduced psd overwriting the high-res master. This would be a disaster. There are several workarounds, saving a temp psd, reduce, save png/gif. But these take clicks, time and disk I/O. Then there’s the redundant reduced psd to delete…
Is there a better safe way to save lower resolution gifs?
