Have you thought about using LR as your export tool too! (Unless you're doing further editing)
I find it annoying to convert between .dng/.tiff and .jpeg just to post on the web, so I work on everything full size, as shot, in LR and CS3. All my re-touched images get imported back into LR as full size .tif or .dng.
I then have a series of Export functions within Lightroom for presentation.
E.g.
Export for 8x10print
Export for Flickr (800px widest side, crap quality to reduce grabboids)
Export for Blog (1200px widest side, better quality)
To set up new Exports, just go to:
File>Export (you'll probably need to have an image selected)
A dialogue box opens. Click on the "For Email" preset.
You can now go and modify the settings you want to change. When you're done, press "Add" and add it as a new, renamed, user preset.
As an example, you might use these for a low res web image:
Location/File Naming: Where to put the image on your PC, and what to call it.
File Settings: Make sure it's jpeg, and quality from 50-100. I use 70 and my web images seem alright.
Image Sizing: Stick your image size in here. 640-800 is about right. Reduce the resolution to 72 ppi as monitors can't show anything better.
Add output sharpening if you want. I don't bother for web images.
Save (Add)
Now, you can click on any image (or series of images) in LR, then right click>export, and your preset comes up in the dropdown without you having to open that dialogue again. Lightroom spits out copies of your image to your named folder.
Repeat the process, changing the image size to 1000 for your bigger web pics and save that as "Big Web Export" or somesuch.
I have export settings for web images, book images (no image resizing, convert to jpeg, 300dpi), export to work on in photoshop (puts the images I want to work on in another folder as copies so that I never bugger up original images), export to Photomatix etc...
Many apologies if you know this stuff and are still having problems. I always struggled with the way CS3 resizes images, and the Lightroom export function is so simple, quick, and has some excellent results.
