Confusion of settings CS4 save for Web GIF

Hello

I work on a new Web site and a problem I can't solve: my navigation links are made using a GIF file and for some reason, the background color GIF is not matching the background color of the page.

The test page is here:

http://www.johnblaustein.com/WebTest2/

Please note that nothing in the page does not work yet.  If you look closely, you'll see that the image of navigation is a slightly different color than the background.  Very slight, but different.  (Once I fix this color, I'll do each link in a separate with slices button.)

In PS, I created a file like this: new file (72 dpi), fill with the same color that I use on the Web page: c4c0b4.  Create new layer and add the type.  The new file is in Adobe RGB, but I convert to sRGB before saving for the web (although I don't think that counts).  When I save for the Web, I started with the default GIF settings, but when I got the color shift, I tried any number of other parameters.  I read a post here which suggests to disable the background of the image layer before saving to the Web, but which resulted in the text looking for bad.  I tried different colors (32, 128), masts settings and other parameters settings with no luck.  Convert to sRBG is always checked.

I like to solve these things on my own, but I've struck out on this one.  I'm here in the hope that one of you gurus can tell me what I am doing wrong.

Thank you very much.

John

I'm over my head about it.  The only thing I noticed is that you're ad

For me the conversion means always compromises are made.

  • PS CC 2015 - save for Web Gif "unknown error."

    I made a rather large animated gif and need help to export in a gif file.

    I tried CC 2014 with no luck and updated level to 2015 with the hope it would work. Nope. I pushed too hard on the capabilities of the PS? Is there something weird about programming?  You have all the tips and tricks? Something will help you!

    Export as that will only save the first image.  SFW is the approach that you need.

    Try changing the frame rate to 12 fps and reduce the size of the first image.  For my Gallery I target usually 800 px to 400 px as a maximum width (or height for the vertical animations).

  • When you save the file GIF grace to save for Web how can I save the original?

    Hello.

    And by definition, a GIF image is optimized! A GIF is not the same size of the PSD file, and you are mistaken in thinking that you want it to be. If you are trying to achieve the slightest loss of quality, regardless of the size of the file, then you need to adjust your settings to save for Web.

  • Photoshop CS4 Settings "save for Web".

    I have two questions - my logic/explanation can be a little hard to follow, so please check screenshots:

    1. when 'save for web', in the "presets" menu drop-down menu, I created a couple of presets and saved in the default folder name

    [C:\Documents and Settings\Shandy Elliott\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Optimized Settings]

    and I deleted those I want to use - never.

    1.jpg

    I even navigate in Explorer in the above path and make sure that no default presets are located in this folder (with Photoshop not running). Photoshop allows re-charging the defaults when I re - open Photoshop or whenever I have "save for web". Is there another place/file in Explorer, I need to delete the default presets, or is only a function of Photoshop to again fill the predefined default settings (which I think is boring if yes)?

    ___________________________________________________________

    2. When you save a .jpg file, there are two ways (at least in my case)-

    a. FILE/SAVE AS / .jpg (then set jpeg options)

    b. "save for web".

    I want to do is be able to use 'save for web', create a specific preset for quality absolute maximum .jpg (JPEG - 100 in the screenshot - that simulate the same result as if I performed step 2 and used "quality 12 for jpeg options" [relatively]) and for Photoshop to DO NOT put dashes between words. I know that I can uncheck the Unix box in 'Compatibility file name' in change output parameters, but which seems to affect all presets and not just a simple "Preset". I guess it's just a global setting not be changed - sometimes I wish software has been a bit more customizable.

    2.jpg

    The reason why I want to be able to do that (in addition to the savings in step 2) in some cases, I would benefit from the extra allows parameters 'save for web' [to know be able to save a .jpg .psd in several different size simply by changing these settings].

    3.jpg

    I'm doing this instead of initially saving a .psd as an 800 x 800 .jpg, then open this 800 x 800 .jpg, resize like, say, 600 x 600, and then save again - which I am basically destruction subsequent .jpg because I re - compress an already compressed image. Record directly from of a .psd and have the ability to resize just the result, for me, seem to be my best option.

    To conclude:

    1. How can I keep specific 'save for web' presets while eliminating the predefined default settings?

    2. How can I set a specific "save for web" pre-programmed to not put dashes between words while allowing dashes for all the other presets?

    Thoughts?

    First rename presets in "C:\Documents and Settings\Shandy Elliott\Application Data\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Optimized Settings" of *.irs to * .ir$ or something like that. " Then same procedure in "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS4\Presets\Optimized Settings"

    This will hide the unwanted presets.

    You can try to remove too - I quite like rename that in order to remove.

  • Save for web as GIF

  • Save for Web is now up to GIF on each record?

    Up to the latest version, the save for Web dialog box remember the type of file that you saved last as. Now, every time I open it... interrupt my workflow, it is up to the pretty spectacular GIF format that I use save for Web several times a day to record versions of the wired models.

    Anyone else seeing this?

    I do not see any place to set a default file type save for web.

    Am I missing something?

    I don't understand the reasoning behind this change. People generally use the same type of file when they export and RARELY is it GIF more. But even if the GIF was still popular, I would say it is much more common that you export the same type of file most of the time that put permanently.

    Gah

  • 'Save for web' seems to be stuck on gif - how to fix?

    Hello

    I've just updated my Photoshop CC 2014 (today) and hoped that this problem should go away.

    When I "save for web" for the past weeks, the changes that I have on the right do not affect the image. Saving to gif format and do not change size, etc. as before.

    See the screen shot comparison. Thanks in advance for any help with this.

    Your screen Capture Png leader showing save for Web in high quality Jpeg setting has a color of the monitor profile.  This seems strange to me. You wrote that with these settings save for backups of Web, an image. gif.jpg not.  You did not post the Gif, nor capture the current backup file that record the dialogue for web displays before the Save.  If indeed save for Web but one gif not a .jpg file try to reset your user ID Photoshop Settings.

    Also what color space are you publishing in?  Image png you posted has a display profile not a normal color space, changing in like sRGB, Adobe RGB or ProPhotoRGB... Image posted on the web should have colors sRGB in the and do not need a color profile.   A PNG file on the web with a display color profile is not what one would expect to see...

  • Animated GIF > save for Web (legacy) ends too large

    I created an animated GIF on a work plan which is 768 x 90, but the Dimensions of the Document indicate 1456 x 416 (a lot of the images fly in and "shrink").

    When I export as a PNG or JPG image it only exports the work plan, so that it remains the size I want to (768 x 90); but when I export > save for Web (Legacy) which is the only way to create an animated GIF AFAIK, it is exported to 1456 x 416.

    How can I get to the exit of the GIF animated image to the size of the artboard? Thank you.

    New export > export as a workflow is not animated gifs, currently exporting. It's probably something that will be supported in the future, however.

    To export a gif animated image in PS using Photoshop CC 2015, do not work plans. Please use export > save for Web (legacy) option without work plans. The backup of the Web feature levels is not support work plans and probably never will be. Instead, we will continue to improve and to the export as a workflow.

  • GIF/save for Web problem (PSE 7)

    I tried searching for an answer to this problem, but nothing seems to fix everything that happens.

    Recently, I had to replace my laptop and from Windows XP to Windows 7.  I transferred the PSE 7 from the old system to the new system and have had no problems with it - until now.  I have an image in format Photoshop 52 - layer I want to save as an animated .gif, with each layer as a different image.  File > > Save As has the ability to save layers as frames, but if I check it, then click on 'Save', nothing happens.  Nothing at all.  On my old system, I would get a new dialogue with options like the quality, duration by frame, loop, etc., but that doesn't happen any more, and there is nothing to save (if I'm going to find the new .gif file, it's just not there). If I do not choose "Layers in images", dialogue .gif does so very well and it has no difficulty to save it as a static .gif file.  But it seems that she won't just save it in animated format.

    I'm having the same problem with "save for Web".  Or the option of the file menu or typing command will bring up dialogue to let me record this way.  He thinks maybe a second, but does nothing else and does not record the image.

    I tried to reset the layout, just in case the dialog box has been moved somewhere that I wasn't just to see and I tried to reset the preferences to save it for the Web, but none of these things worked.  No explanation as to why a .gif animation 'layers as images"is the only format that is not saving correctly?

    I also tried old connections animated that I created with XP, and they will not re - save as animation connections either opening.  I get her "do you want to save changes" dialogue, but clicking on 'Yes' does nothing and does not record updates.  I am at a total loss for why this feature no longer works.

    If you right click on the shortcut of items and choose Run as administrator,

    It does make a difference or not save for Web work?

    Registration of the Web dialogue box is the same dialog box that you would get when checking the layers as frames

    Hello

    I Googled, but not found anything about this but I have the same problem on my computer and also on colleagues from computer so it seems that it should not be completely unknown.

    That's what I do

    1 open an eps file, the logo of a single color, the 72 dpi, size 110 x 21

    2 save for web

    3. Select png-24 format. Said overview file size ~1.3 kB

    4 save-> actual size of the file on disk is 4 k (IE 3 times larger than it should be)

    5 preview and click right then in the browser + save the image under gives correct the size of the file (on my colleagues computer, this does not work, it always receives the right size)

    I also tried with gif and various settings, etc. image sizes and the result is the same.

    I use Windows Vista 32-bit and Photoshop CS4.

    Is this a known issue?

  • Where the file is saved when I "save for Web?

    When I'm with 'save for web', (AI 2014 CC), I get a "Save" button, but no button "save under". " After hitting the 'Save', I can't locate the new file on my drive. What is the trick?

    John,

    Maybe it's time for the list: obviously, you should give the opportunity to the save location. unless it's a new feature just send it somewhere on the internet.

    The following is a general list of things, try when the question is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by problems with opening a file from external media. You tried/made some of them already; 1 and 2) are easier for temporary strangenesses and 3) and 4) specifically preferences might be corrupt); ((5) is a list in itself and 6) is the last resort.

    If possible / there is, you must record a current work first, of course.

    (1) close Illy and open again.

    (2) restart the computer (you can make up at least 5 times);

    (3) close Illy and press Ctrl + Alt + Shift / Cmd + Option + shift during startup (easy, but irreversible);

    4) move the folder (follow the link with this name) with closed Illy (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible), for CS3 - CC you can find the file here:

    https://helpx.Adobe.com/Illustrator/KB/preference-file-location-Illustrator.html

    5 look through and try the relevant among the other options (click on the link with that name, item 7) is a list of the usual suspects among other applications which can disturb and confuse Illy, point 15) applies to the maybe CS5, CS6 and CC);

    Even worse, you can:

    (6) (check the box to delete the preferences), run the cleanup tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC) to uninstall and reinstall.
