@svdl Whey do you save for web as a JPG and then crop it and save the thumbnail as a JPEG? Every time you re-save a JPEG you lose image quality. Why not just crop the desired area within the PSD file and save that for the web? You'd only have one generation of JPEG compression and your image quality should improve.

Before they made me they broke the mold!
