you get a woo!
for correct use of a gif
( Dr. Kitteny Berk almost certainly drunk, Wed 15 Oct 2003, 13:27, archived)

why's that correct?

( Herr Tezcat, Wed 15 Oct 2003, 13:28, archived)

because it's the sort of image
.gif is suited to, unlike photos etc.

Only 2 colours, large areas of same colour.
.gif is smaller/better than .jpg in these circumstances.
( supermoore: HUNG, Wed 15 Oct 2003, 13:29, archived)

because it optimises better
than a jpg in this instance, due to the lower colour depth, and more linear nature of the image.

Loose optimisation

In April this year,
a woman opposite me on a train was getting stroppy with the guard because the buffet car had run out of tea.
He replied "Don't you know there's a war on?"
They probably sacked him for it, but it was very funny nevertheless.

I'd have given him a promotion.

(goat thinks you're shit, Wed 15 Oct 2003, 13:42, archived)

I'd have given him Richard Branson's job
and tied Branson to the rails.

but a .jpg would give nicer anti-aliasing on the edge of the font with the addition of what? 1kb? - and that image isn't animated
( chilledunit, Wed 15 Oct 2003, 13:31, archived)

a jpg
would make it look bad and a bit blocky

and around 15k Vs <3k
( Dr. Kitteny Berk almost certainly drunk, Wed 15 Oct 2003, 13:32, archived)

ah ok
*shrugs* i always thought text looked nicer in a nicely done jpeg

you're wrong
and you're a grotesquely ugly freak.

well,
A JPG of comparable quality would have added about 6k to the size (or tripled it). Software used for test bed, Fireworks MX.

"Minger-Porn" on them.

Someone go and look.
