Hate to sound dumb, but y'all have me intrigued with this whole TIFF vs. PSD talk. This is the first conversation I've ever seen about it, and it sounds like I've goofed by deleting all the TIFF files (yep, to save space!) when I download my files. I didn't figure I needed two different versions of layered files & PSD is what I "learned" - so the others have been getting tossed.

Anyway, this is good info to have - but I just want to make sure I'm clear on a couple of things before I change the way I do business - lol!
  • Are all the processes you use with a PSD (Resize, Save for Web, etc.) pretty much identical with a TIFF?
  • Would it make sense to just save all my PSD files as TIFFS as I use them? I can't imagine why anybody wouldn't want to save space.
(I use PSE as opposed to Photoshop and a Mac instead of a PC in case that affects the answers, although I can't imagine why it would.)

Thanks so much!!
