Sharpness/Resolution (retina display)

[suladesign]

Ok, so ever since I got the new retina display, I realize how terribly fuzzy my pages look on the web, compared some other people's pages. And it makes me keep wondering: What are you guys doing that I'm obviously doing wrong in the saving process?

E.g. Darla's pages look perfect as far as resolution/minimal fuzziness is concerned.
Same with Lydia, and Jacinda, to mention just a few of the babes ...

Any tips to improve my pages internet performance would be greatly appreciated!

Sheri did a great blog post about how she sharpens and saves for web: https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/index.php/2011/05/page/3/ Scroll down to the 365 Days of Bliss – Day 6 – Photoshop Tip post. I use pretty much the same settings.

I noticed a difference in the sharpness of my layouts when I last updated my computer as well. It can be a little tricky to get it just right, and sometimes I think my layouts still need a little tweaking. I'm glad to hear that you think they look good.

I think Jacinda and I do almost the same thing for sharpening. I talked a bit about it in my Scrap Like a SugarBabe post on the tutorial blog. It's kind of a long post, but the part about sharpening and saving for Web is about 2/3 of the way down. I also included a download of an action I've created for that process. I don't know if it will work for everyone (I'm on a Mac and using CS 6). But, the download link is at the bottom of the post if you want to try it.

Here's a link to the tutorial: https://www.sweetshoppedesigns.com/tutorials/index.php/2012/05/scrap-like-a-sugarbabe-lydia-tarbox/

Yes! That was the other tutorial I was trying to find.

Thanks ladies. I think that should get me started on some improvements here ...
