• blank white cover layer on top
• delete unused alpha channels
• crop layers that unnecessarily extend past the canvas

Not sure what you meant by “blank white layer on top”???

Mudi means if you have about 6 items you don’t need to include all of them in one bundle, instead do 3 in 1

Thanks. I guess so, but I would want them to be one bundle as it’s part of a series. I have six items so I guess I’ll have to do 3 and 3. I thought all 6 would be more of a pull for the punters to buy!

Just a layer with a white fill but can be deleted later by anyone using the file.

Photoshop saves a lot of extra data along with your file. Things like the preview and other composite info. Either turning all the layers off or putting a blank solid white fill layer to cover the design will make Photoshop not save this information reducing the size by a good chunk.

Some of these methods can save you 20-100+ megs depending on your file.

Interesting. So basically say if I have 2 similar files with the same amount of layers and specification but on one of the files I place a white fill layer above the rest of the layers that would reduce the file size compared to the one without the extra white layer? Is that what you mean or have I got it wrong?

Yes. Give it a try with any of your files. Just save a new copy with a white layer on top and compare.

As far as I know it’s the same as turning your layers off, I just find it’s a simpler action for a buyer to delete or turn a single layer off than having to turn layers on.

Thanks Deiby! That’s interesting Shall give it a whirl.
