Saving in Photoshop

When saving an image in Photoshop, which mode is it better to save in -"Baseline Optimized" or "Progressive" and why may I ask?

The difference shows when you open the image on the web. Progressive builds the detail up in layers, You first see a blurred image then more and more detail until the image is fully loaded. Probably useful for slow sites.

Baseline builds the image from top to bottom.

Most people use Baseline these days.

Ah, I often wondered what was behind the blurred to finished photo. Now I know thanks to you.
