ok, Everytime i post an image, i would like to post a Thumbnail to go with it, so people can click on the picture. To post a thumbnail, it has to be 50 x 200 it says & has to be like 15kb! In photoshop CS2 when i save or Export the pic out as a JPEG, i have to make the picture look like crap so it will be 15kb or under so i can post a thumbnail image. Most artists post huge thumbnails that are really clear! I don't get it! Please help a hungry artist......

Use "save for web." That way, you can adjust the quality so it's under 15kb.

Use the "save for the web" option. It will give you a better quality image at a much smaller file size.

Oh! ok thank you all! I knew it couldn't be too hard! i just didn't understand why everybody else had such great Thumbnails & i had no thumbnails! LOL! Thax again!

And it's not 50 x 200 , which means 50 wide and 200 tall. It can be up to 200 x 200. Usually, I make my thumbnail by setting up a fixed 400 x 400 selection in photoshop. I move this selection over the area I want to highlight in the thumbnail (usually boobs or ass - that usually gets more attention). Then crop the image. Then scale down by half to get 200 x 200. It usually doesn't look like crap at that point, even at 15K limit. But if it does, try some guassian blur on the 400x400 before the reduction to 200x200.
