Braums Posted December 27, 2006 Author Share Posted December 27, 2006 Thanks. Now, what is the best one to use PNG or JPEG because ive seen both of those a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illnab1024 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Well depending upon your application... JPEG is good for most web application on large images, because the compression brings the filesize down to a reasonable size... PNG would be good for lossless storage of images on a personal drive or small images on web sites that need to be lossless. Quote ~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuzzKill Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 Most would say PNG over JPEG. Now, for which one is best?... Well, that's a matter of your opinion. Best bet... experiment!
