	How do I save?	Although "How do I save?" seems like a very basic question, in ImageReady it's a little more complicated than in your average application. Instead of two Save options (Save and Save As...) under the File menu, you have four: Save Save As... Save Optimized Save Optimized As...
		Save and Save As... work just the same as they do in any other application: Save will save the current un-optimized file (the one you see under the "Original" tab in the window). It will be saved in .psd format, to be opened and edited at some future time by either ImageReady or Photoshop. Save As... will save the current un-optimized file in .psd format, but with a new name and location that you assign it. Save Optimized and Save Optimized As... let you save the optimized version of the graphic in web format: Save Optimized will save the image in the optimized file format you specified (choose Images Only in the dialog box). It does nothing to the original .psd file; if you want to save that, you must use the Save command (above). If you like, ImageReady will also create an HTML document with all the necessary code to display your image in a web browser, including special effects such as links, rollovers, and animations. (Choose the HTML and Images option in the dialog box).

		Save Optimized As... does the same thing as Save Optimized, but lets you give the file a new name.
