Greetings,

First I would like to say that I am enjoying your CD on Web2  –  very well done.  I have a little problem, though. Is there  something special that I have to do to get the program to read the Photoshop PSD pics?

Hope that you can help.

Regards,
Kay

Hi Kay,

Glad you like my video. Expression Web can’t read Photoshop PSD files because it is designed to read only the file formats that work on the web, which are JPEGs, GIFs, and PNGs.

What you need to do is convert your images into one of these formats in Photoshop and then you can use the images in Expression Web.

To optimize an image for the web, which both gets it in the correct format and makes it download faster, choose File > Save For Web. Then select the image type and compression or color options you prefer. You’ll find some basic instructions in my training video for optimizing images for the web with this technique.

I hope that helps and I wish you all the best,

Janine
