Hi,
I’m using Photoshop 7.0 in Windows XP. Recently I created several greeting e-cards/e-flyers for inserting into Outlook 2007 and emailing to my data base. I have tried saving them as .jpg .tiff and as .html objects. When I first insert them into Outlook, they look great but once they are emailed they degrade considerably. If I use only vector objects in my cards they do just fine but when I use text over high or low res photos or patterns everything including/especially the text degrades considerably when emailed. I have presented my problem to the Outlook tech support without resolution. I have searched the web and read many articles for answers/alternatives, over the past several months, without resolution. My questions to you are: Am I using the wrong software for creating my flyers and cards (love all that you can do in Photoshop) and if so what should I be using? Am I missing something in the saving process or am I trying to do something in Photoshop that can’t be done? I consider myself a Photoshop enthusiast and I am planning the CS3 upgrade before it is to late, but may need to invest in another software to accomplish my goals. I have created many interesting pieces and would like to turn this into a small business if I can find the solution. Thanks so much . . . sorry this is so long.
