I didn't know which forum to post this in and I've never actually written one of these but had to speak up. As a user of Photoshop and Illustrator for 20 years, I am blown away. It took just a little while to get up to speed with Affinity Photo and Affinity Designer, but I'm in love and I can't go back to my desktop. Your software is AMAZING and I am able to do everything I need to do with the new dimension of touching the screen. I can't tell you how much I appreciate what you have created. I had one issue and you took care of it swiftly. Now if you would create an iPad After Effects killer I would just work on the beach. Keep up the great work you guys!

Apparently I uploaded one of the incorrect photos - the issue is that when making the exact same export selections photoshop exports a much smaller file size. Creating art in Affinity then having to open it in photoshop to save it at a useful file size is kind of crazy. I believe I saw a message about them having an issue outputting reasonable file sizes. Back soon...

Sorry for the delay. Attached are 2 images, same save settings, one from photoshop save for web and one exported from affinity. The photoshop file is 1.4 meg and the affinity file is 3.6 - when saving things for the web in smaller sizes it’s a bigger problem as to get a reasonable quality comparison the file size is way too big. There is a quality loss in affinity vs photoshop, but the image size issue means I can’t edit images for the web, which I do all day, so it’s a bummer The files are too big for the forum upload so here is a link: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7hekac3xgm16u8v/AAAcUIgS8H9l53y8iYUdPmbda?dl=0

It looked like a great app - I simply want to edit images and export them as jpgs for the web. Adobe lets you export for the web and creates beautiful files that are tiny - affinity photo creates large, terrible looking images. I see this was brought up in a forum re the Mac desktop app 3 years ago and hasn’t been resolved. Hey gang - are you going to fix this or should we toss it in the trash?
