That would be weird because I'm not an English spoken men, I'm a swede! :) Do see the point!? :) Rickard Andersson@Suza Computing C# and C++ programmer from SWEDEN!

No wonder everyone became programmers instead of graphics designers :) Have a look at my article (below) for an example. Adaptive palleted GIF are the best for UI type screenshots. Heck look at all my articles!!! MyDUMeter: a .NET DUMeter clone

Niave maybe, and up for anything, but not definately not wise. ;P

Huh. You call that a screenshot? Where's your full color landscape photo wallpaper? Where's your extra-large gradient XP frame controls? Where's your alpha-blended superfluous icons? :rolleyes:

I pronounce JPEG as jiipegg (J as you would pronounce the letter J, and then peg). I've never heard anyone where I live pronounce it as J P G ;P Gotta be a "norrländsk" thing. ;) -- Ignorant people upsets me.

Hah! If you squint your eyes a little, (and zoom in using a nice image viewer) you can pickup discreet changes in color along the gradient direction. It aint perfect! Shame on you.... :-D -- Ignorant people upsets me.

Well, I'm going with the writers of the spec, who say Ping (see my post above for the link) -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!
