(a) Save it as .png. It is the best for quality.

Saving:
Always save your work as PNG. format, if it's animated, it needs to be saved "for web and devices" as Gif. format.

Scan Lines:
1: The pattern like what you have in your avatar
2: The shine effect with the line going across the layout

That's what I can help you with.

Only save as .PNG if it's a small image, always Save Wallpaper as JPEG / Max Quality.

"Baseline ("Standard") to use a format recognizable to most Web browsers.

Baseline Optimized to optimize the color quality of the image and produce a slightly smaller file size. This option is not supported by all Web browsers.

Progressive to create an image that displays gradually as it is downloaded--in a series of scans (you specify how many) showing increasingly detailed versions of the entire image. Progressive JPEG images files are slightly larger in size, require more RAM for viewing, and are not supported by all applications and Web browsers."

If you save your files as PNG it will ask you for None or Interlaced.
It actually does not matter what you use but Interlaced creates an image with a bigger filesize because it builds more resolution in one file which actually isn't really neccessary if you only save things like Signatures etc. . .

So you can always go with None.
