    Hi,

    I created an image in Photoshop for my website. It’s mostly text and I created it so I would have freedom with my text choices on my site. Even though it was a high quality image when I saved it in Photoshop, it shows up very blurry online.

    I’m not sure if this is something I need to fix in Photoshop or Dreamweaver, but I would really appreciate any advice anyone can give me if they think they know what the problem might be.

    Here is the link to my site and the image: https://www.msu.edu/~mcgrat71/resume.html

    Thank you so much!

    Cheers,

    Casey McGrath

    That’s not a blurry image, but a pixelated one. Have you tried a link to a pdf document instead? It’s low in size and will be a lot crispier.

    Also, how did you reduce the size of your original image?

    Your image is too small, and your layout in Dreamweaver is stretching your image to fit. Get the exact width of your table in Dreamweaver (in this case it’s 800px wide) and make your image in Photoshop the same width.

    The other suggestions should help you through your issue with the image, but I wonder if there’s a reason why you chose to encapsulate your entire résumé in one image? It might be better to use standard HTML text for this. If you simply must use a fancy script for the section headers, those can be made images. I highly recommend using text online when you can.
