i foud out how to do it i was naming the file .jpeg manualy and not selecting jpeg on the bar in photoshop so it dint give me the optsions for compesion
u can also "save for web" in .jpeg html or .gif

[akbar_]

so i just can save as web and then choose jpeg and gif and then its smaller?

[havoc879]

best way would be a .gif

gif seems better some how to me to  but
{quot}PNG supports a more efficient compression algorithm than GIF, is patent-free, is capable of storing more image formats and includes some nifty error-checking features. When saving identical GIF and PNG images, the resulting PNG file will be 5% to 20% smaller than the GIF file.

From the point of view of a graphic artist, the PNG format is almost identical to the existing GIF format, yet it delivers a better compression rate and supports newer formats that GIF did not support. I now use PNG in every situation in which I would have used GIF in the past.

but when i put .png behind the userbar and then save and when i look to it...it isn't anymore a animated userbar..

It's because .png doesn't support animation. If you do a animated bar, you have to save it in .gif.

usually saving for web in photoshop, with jpeg quality set to 80, or even 60 for more compression will give nice images and low size. For animations i create them in flash, export as jpeg sequence and import folder as frames in imageready. Then export with a IR preset: Gif 64 No Dither. The animation quality and size are pretty reasonable.
