I don't know if you can appreciate it, but between the "Save as" method and the "Save for web" method, for the same quality, there's a noticeable loss of quality I don't want to have. The "black" dots look "way more" softer.


Both have the same quality, both are JPEG.


This is my final result, anyway:

The story is that these covers are album arts, and I embed album arts into the music files (FLAC). When you embed an album art into a music file, the picture is added to that file, so the size of the music file grows as much as the picture's size. So, one golden rule of mine is that album arts can't be more heavy than 390KB, because these 390KB are going to be multiplied by the number of songs, cause I embed the album art to every song. So I don't want to have an album with 6MB of album art.


But when I discovered that Paint was not showing the same picture as Photoshop, then I didn't want to add that photo to the music files cause may be the music player shows the one appearing in Paint. That's why I want it to be perfect. Anyway, even it's just a picture, I wanna know why is that happening and how can I fix it.


So, I saved the project as PNG-8, and was only 301KB, and that size is good enough.


What is our favorite program/app? (Hint - it begins and ends with the letter P)
