Best Way to Export JPG Screenshot Containing Text

[silvine]

HI,

I took a screenshot of a website page with Skitch.

I want to display this image as a JPEG on my website in a tutorial.

When I resize the image and export it in Photoshop, the text in the screenshot becomes jagged and hard to read. I exported it at 630x400.

What's the best way to do this, without having a massive image that takes up the page.

Thanks for the help.

Use the transform tool grab a corner and drag it to the center all while holding the shift button to the size you want Just one suggestion

When you take the screenshot, what format does Skitch save it in?

Don't resize in Skitch. Just open it in Photoshop and then resize it.

There's a bunch of different problems that could arise. It would help a lot if you could post both before and after (resizing) versions of a problematic screenshot.

Thanks.

It would be better if you will make the changes straight with Photoshop.
