JPEG quality differences?

[Minith]

What is the difference (besides larger file size) between saving a JPEG file in quality 8 than a quality 12?

In this case, the files will be displayed on the web.

I think the difference is that if you saved it at 8, it gets more pixelated as you zoom in as opposed to a 12, where it won't get as pixelated when you zoom.

Thank you thank you

I would save at 5 for the web

It uses higher compression and reduced the size of files. You can drop quite a lot without really noticing. The compression is more noticable in printed images

thanks for the help Colin

basically, you want to save it around 5 so it can load faster right?
