# hey, just trying to help!
nevermind you are not listening, twat!

gifs are good for large blocks of color like that and necessary for animations.
jpgs are more geared towards photo-type images.
all has to do with the way they compress the images.

as a gif you would have gotten clean black & white on the bottom image,
but as jpg you get those little compression artefacts where the colors meet (those little grey splotches).

# umm
since we're on a learning and being considerate to the dial-uppers, if you remove the question mark and everything after it at the end of the pic's url, then the stuff will cache properly and won't have to reload each time the screen is refreshed. that shouldn't take you more than a few seconds to do in edit post.
