Wait, are you using "Save" or "Save for Web"? I'm not too sure if choosing Save works; I've been using Save for Web all this while and hadn't had any probs, so you might want to try that out. Anyway, this option optimizes the image for viewing on the web, so there's no reason not to use it :wink:

Then use GIF. PSD isn't really supposed to be used for anything outside Photoshop.

Give BK a break.

He needs help with photoshop, not Photobucket.

Firstly, use Imageshack, not Photobucket.

For turning the PSD to GIF...:

If you use Photoshop CS and Imageready CS, go here: http://pokeproject.forumup.org/viewtopic.php?t=697&mforum=pokeproject

If you use Photoshop Elements, go here:
http://pokeproject.forumup.org/viewtopic.php?t=699&mforum=pokeproject

That should help :wink:

10. - When you are satisfied with the animation, save the file. It is important to first save the file using the Photoshop format. The Photoshop format preserves all components of the button and allows you to make changes later if necessary. Once you have saved it as a PSD file, you can optimize the animation for the Web and save it in the GIF format, the format needed to display the animation on the Web.

If you follow that bit to the letter then it should work.
