Ive signed up just to chip in on this subject: I can see the reason to have PNG as the default format, but I cant see why there shouldnt be a way to set the default to whatever the user prefers, be it jpg or anything else. Even if it meant delving in to the registry to set it, that would be good enough for me. This morning I was taking screen grabs of a load of website pages, pasting them as new image and just saving them for archive purposes. Everytime I wanted to save an image I had to select the format I wanted. This adds up to a lot of wasted time when you do it often. Even if the default format issue is somehow sacrosanct, how about just remembering the last format you used? If you do a 'save as' it usually (helpfully) defaults to the last directory you saved to, why cant it remember the last format you saved in? NB: I know this is a year old thread, but you have listed all the previous threads so whats the point of me doing that again when its already here. Please dont close this thread just because its an old one. This is a topic that has been running for years, wrongly ignored IMHO.
