Message: [QUOTE="Vince Morgan, post: 2019811"] The quality of the site you are working on seems very good. There is considerable image content on a couple of pages and with that in mind I would like to make a suggestion. PNG images have been around for a long time now and are well supported. They offer good, truely lossless compression. Even master images can be compressed without affecting the quality in any way. They can also have an alpha channel, though there is little support for this feature in browsers yet. In most cases they even compress better than a JPG I realize that your resources are limited, but I would try very hard to find a freeware image editor, that can save an image as a PNG, with as much control over the compression as possible. Agonising over the degree of loss you are prepared to accept to allow lower bandwith users reasonable access is a thing of the past with PNG, IMHO. All the best Ivan, Vince Morgan [/QUOTE]
