higher compression rate = poorer image quality.
normal bitmaps have no compression so they should always be larger than JPGs.

| sir wankalot Member UK 904 Posts 5/03 |  Posted - Mar 23 2005 : 12:51PMI noticed that when i visited Redlightdistrictvideo.com they have high quality jpegs of their box covers around about 300 kb in size. I often save covers to my PC so i can remember which ones i want to buy. I have found if i resave the photo in Micosoft paint as a jpeg it shrinks it to about 60 kb in size. Why is that? Are the RLD jpegs really bitmaps in disguise? [Link] |
