I have a scanned photo that's 3.7M. I want to use it in Photoshop on my 
Amiga emulted MAC (I use Shapeshifter).

The original is around 3x5. The final size I want in Photoshop is 1.5x2.5.

I'm using IMFX 1.52.

I cropped the photo,then halfed it,then saved as jpeg (90% compression).
Is this the correct way?

Previously I had jpegged first, then cropped and halfed it.Then I was 
going to save it again, but then I would have had to turn the JPEG 
compression to =0 if I selected 'save as jpeg', or I would have to use 
'save as ilbm' which seemed erroneous to me.

The former method resulted in a 78K file which is great!
The latter method,which I don't think is correct resulted in a 344k file.

Any help is appreciated.

Regards.

Steve Yee.
