I learned a long time ago from some other artists here on the Forum (when I was a newbie I was so duh, I asked questions of people who turned out to be 'biggies', like Traveler), that jpg is a lossy format. It is best not to save your images out of Poser as a jpg. If you are going to post work the image or just add titling, you have already lost quality before you even start. It was suggested to me to save out as a tiff image (which preserves an alpha channel). I've not tried the save out as a photoshop file. I personally don't like photoshop and have used Paintshop instead for ages. Bring your tiff image in and do whatever you are going to do to your image (post work, hair painting,titling, ect). Then save out as a jpg for posting to the galleries. I use the cropping tool to cut out a tantilizing part of the image when in tiff, resize, put my logo on it, and use sharpen if the resized image has gotten a little fuzzy. Save this with a slightly different name from your main image. Some people put the word 'thumb' in the title for the thumbnail. On the gallery upload page, there is a dialogue box for both the image and the thumbnail. Browse and insert your pic and thumbnail, and away you go.
