Did you just insult my website over jpeg?

You probably didn't even look at it #$*($&*

Thanks very much for that IrfanView program, it works great.

No I didn't look at it, but according to the specifications (no png), I know it does.

Sorry.

Hey dude, your website is already using GIFs. Use that instead, if PNGs are a no.

You're going to kill a few Intellectual Property lawyers (and 16 bit colors), but oh well.

This wasn't a topic for my site, this was a topic of a request for a feature.

It's still on topic.

And your FF4 pictures are ugly compared to your FF5 ones. Hint: look at the text.

Both FFIV and FFV picture text is small. They are in thumbnail view! Click on the pic and you will see it better.

Doesn't matter really...

You'll be able to set a quality (1 to 9) in Photoshop (or irfanview I guess), but it will still be lossy, and you will lose quality, especially on text. DON'T DO IT.

Why can't you make gifs? Problem solved.

O_o My site does support png files. I dunno guess I did something wrong when I tested it last time... Sorry for the trouble, I will just use png files.

Actually, the LZW patents expired a couple of months ago.

Not everywhere in the world IIRC.

And even if they did, the lawyers still won't be happy.

The only way I can see for a site to not allow PNG graphics would be if the server was purposely made to not allow them to be served, which would be very, very stupid in my opinion. If they aren't blocking the images, though, then it has nothing to do with the server, it's the browser that handles displaying images. As far as JPEG, I'd only use JPEG on things like photographs, since the quality on those is usually of the type where artifacts in the image aren't bad. But JPEG for emulator snapshots? That is just ridiculous. One of the communties I'm with does a lot of work with sprites, and thus, being able to have crisp, clear, artifact-less images is nice when you are trying to rip sprites from games. JPEG is a lousy idea for an emulator.

Mahaha I have recoded my image code for my site...

Now I got images/image 00##.png

Now getting pictures up on my site will be a breeze.

The only renaming I will have to do is change the name of the rom to image! and booya, I got pics. I'm glad I found out png works! Now no converting and no renaming! Happy day. Took awhile to recode, but it makes future picturing no hazzle. THANKS ZSNES!

Are you using IE6 by any chance?
