Overview

You know how to use the features in Adobe® Photoshop® CS3 to enhance and modify images to meet your requirements. Now, you would want to create and work with images to be used in the web pages. In this course, you will use Photoshop to create and optimize images for the web. You will also stage web page components, arrange them aesthetically, and add interactivity to them. Finally, you will export the web page consisting of interactive images so that you can view and test their functionality in Internet browsers.

Course Objective

You will set Photoshop’s unit preferences and save files in different formats to see how well each one balances image quality with file size reduction. You will then calibrate your system’s color display. You will also use Photoshop as part of creating finished web pages and export individual slices and create an HTML Web page that displays a table containing the sliced sections. Finally, you will use Photoshop and the Save for Web and Devices feature to create and optimize animations for the web and mobile devices.
