Default What Am I Doing Wrong

I have noticed that all my pages loaded to the gallery look blurry. I don't think its my monitor because other pages look so crisp can someone give me some tips on how to properly load pages to the gallery.
Thanks

The same thing is happening to me. All the little layouts look blurry, but when I click on it to look at the bigger layout sometimes its clear and other times its blurry. Im not sure whats happening. It has been like this for awhile now.

I don't know if this will solve your problem, but this is what I do.
After I have resized my jpeg file til websize (72 dpi and usually 600x600 or 660x660 pixels) - then I run a very "light" unsharpen (USM) filter ON the resized web page, before I save it - I don't have PS here on this PC, but my parameters on the USM is from top to bottom : 15-1-1. I have experimented some with these numbers and these are what I am usually happy with. Gives just a little sharpness to the uploaded page.

Hope that helps.

I think there was another thread on this over the weekend. I'll see if I can find it.
But, here's what I do: I resize to 700 x 700 pixels, leaving the dpi at 300, and run unsharp mask of 100, .3, 0.
There are so many ways to do all of these things, but those are the steps that have been working for me.
