Optimizing graphics for Web

Sometime ago a friend asked me to help him with a graphic he needed to upload to the web. He had tried a couple of times and because the graphic contained text, it was coming out blurry. When he tried to increase the file quality, the file size would balloon and the website would not accept it. The site kept asking for a smaller file. So what to do?

Have you ever found yourself in this predicament? If you're like me, tinkering with images, videos, etc, I bet you have.

Well, I decided to create a video to help my buddy. The video goes on to describe the different types of graphic formats: JPG, GIF and PNG as well as some of the most common graphics editors. Finally, it describes how optimize a graphic using Irfanview.

Check it out and let me know what you think.
