What JPEG quality settings have you guys been using on your phones? I typicaly use 5 but I've noticed a decent difference even between that and 8.

Thanks!

Where is this setting you reference? Mine only has fine, normal and economy.

Sorry, I should have mentioned that I was asking about images on the computer. Once I crop and resample them in PhotoShop, I have to choose the JPEG quality when I go to save the image again. You can choose any quality that is the same or lower than the original JPEG image.

I've been leaving them at 8 so far. It seems to make a noticable difference even on such a small screen and the size difference isn't much (I have something like 12 images so far and it's less than 400K).

Are you using the 170x220 image size? And which version of photoshop do you have? If you are not using the 170x220 image size, what size are you using?

I'm using 176x184 for the main screen. It's the correct size with the ERI banner off but the info banner (missed calls, voice mail, alarms, etc.) on.

BTW... for anyone who's letting the phone resize their images, don't. Having the correct native image size greatly improves the images (like the stock images Verizon loads).

I'm using PhotoShop CS but it shouldn't matter what photo editing program you use... all of them allow you to set JPEG compression values.
