TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Well, solved enough. We got the best quality by choosing a slightly
larger image size than I had been working with, saving the reduced image
as a psd, and then converting it to a gif using ImageReady. And then I
removed some width and height constraints that had been assigned to the
image in Dreamweaver (I was working with a text file), and the image
sized properly and looked much better. So part of the problem was those
constraints, and that makes me feel just a tad thick.
Thanks for everyone who responded with work arounds and the broader
context behind images. I learned quite a lot about images today, which
I've needed to do for a while.
