I know why it exists but.. no thanks.

@Alice it still looks good, no worries :D
I didn't even notice the compression because the content is much more interesting than pixel-counting

Haha
It's like emacs (right) and sed/ed/vim (left)

All PNG, all the time. If I have a client sending me JPEGs (or better still, uncompressed TIFFs...) I ask them to re-export the files.

@Alice a 16.000.000 color pic in svg

JPEG with 100% quality.

Get some good 'ol TIFF in here man.

Fuck JPEG. Fuck people who think saving a few bytes by uploading their logo as GIF is good.

If (logos and illustrations )
Use SVG

if (performances and load time optimization)
Use JPEG

else
Use PNG

SVG is where it's at

Imho, JPEG should be banned to be saved with less than 80% quality. Furthermore it shouldn't be allowed to use JPEG for anything non-photograph-ish.
Anything else: PNG.
If it's something vector-esk or simply some generic forms: SVG.

Needs more jpeg!

@sisakmarton Needs even more jpeg

The only decent thing about JPEG is progressive loading, or however it is called. I really love the fact that you can load a blurrier version of an image before the whole thing loads, when you have a bad connection. So, for pictures, maybe JPEG, but for the rest, PNG, or SVG.

@Alice save as PNG, rename to .jpg

Should work the same, most renderers won't care too much about extension, they will be looking to metadata for encoding pattern.

@seraphimsystems renderers, yeah. But not the converters which compress them again, just to keep certain limits or shit like that on storing on server side.

@astartes when i get .webp image i convert it to .jpg or .png because no one use it.

Jpg doesn't support transparency.

I remember switching to PNG in my design days, and laughing at the peons using JPEG and their blur's.

JPEG saved my ass today, college requires a 5K word, 10MB txt file attached with over 200 screenshots word document to be under 20MB. Well, JPEG with 25 compression level, looks shit but still legible.

Thank you JPEG.

@BadFox the problem there is the 5K limit. Still, it is helpful to have JPEG for those techers who don't care about quality, in exchange of a couple of MBs.

U get better color with jpeg for photos no?

Jpeg for photos
Png for the rest

I’ll probably learn svg next time

#justiceforjpeg

SVG wherever the source can be exported as vector graphics.

JPEG only for real-life photos or something similiar, and whenever possible with 100% quality.

And PNG for the rest: Drawings, textures, web images, screenshots etc...

@Benedikt jpg for anything with gradient colours in, GIF for motion (soft g), PNG for transparency, SVG for vector, flash to annoy peoplec

@seraphimsystems Oh, gradient, of course!
But I would never use Gif. PNGs or an MP4 fit better in most cases.
