Does the Maximize Compatibility option pop-up when you go to save your PSD?
All you need to do is go into your preferences and make a few adjustments so Photoshop knows what you want to do without asking.
Step 1. Go to Photoshop/Preferences/General or Edit/Preferences/General.
Step 2. Select the File Handling option. Under File Compatibility the last section Maximize PSD and PSB file compatibility select the option for Always in the drop down.
That’s it, no more pop-up’s when saving!

Also a quick way to re-size images and make them crisper with Bicubic Sharper:
Step 1. Open your image to be re-sized. Go to Image/Image Size.
Step 2. Go to the last drop down box and select Bicubic Sharper. Then fill in the rest of your Image Size requirements.
This will re-size the image and make it look as if it is sharper than if you had just done the regular process of sizing down. The differences between the 2 images below are subtle, but if you look close you can see that the Bicubic Sharper is a bit clearer and shows more of the detail.

Good tips… I never really knew there was much difference in the “resample” options.
Queen Bee- I hadn’t know this either till a friend pointed it out to me…it works and is very useful for screen shots that need re-sizing.
thanks for checking out the post!
