Hi,
I wanted to be able to design my own forum's skin, but to do this I have to make a number of .gif images. Problem is, I don't know how to do this through Photoshop and have them actually look decent for the web.
When I try to save a thead_bg.gif , the gradient goes and it becomes two colours, the dark colour and the shade of white.
So, if someone could tell me how I can produce quality .gif images for the web, that'd be much appreciated. Otherwise, can someone give me a good way of knowing how to edit the template (what files?) to change thead_bg.gif to thead_bg.png. I can make .png files with good quality.
Ideas?
