File Types - Tumblr Posts

WOW! Your art is otherworldly!!! The vibrancy of your colors, the spunky characters, the elaborate and imaginative storytelling: your work is stunning! Do you by any chance have advice for uploading high quality images? Tumblr adjusts the quality of my art when I upload it and I have no idea how to fix it. Do you know why this is?

Ah, thank you so much! I had a low quality image problem too, until I started using “Save for Web” in Photoshop’s settings (under File > Export) . I use Save For Web and then save it as a PNG. For some reason, this method keeps the image crisp. If I try using normal Save As and select PNG, the quality degrades too, weirdly (it is supposed to be lossless, right?).
