How do you do it in CS4?

I have blended some images but the only 'save as' options seem to be PSD, TIFF and a couple of others.
There doesn't seem to be an option to save as JPG for web display?

Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Surely I've missed something simple!

Thanks.

G'day Paul, I'm making an assumption here, have you flattened your layers? if not it will only save in a format that supports layers. Well that's what happens in CS3.

Yeah pretty sure I flattened the image David. It was either that or 'merge visible'. To me they both seem to do the same thing?

Still no luck though.

your file is not 8-bit. JPG is an 8bit format. Go to image>mode> and change it to 8bit and it will save as JPG.

Thanks Rick! That did the the trick. 32 bit down to 8 bit :th3:
