Default Re: Tell me again... Screenshot?

For pokertracker screenshots, GIF and PNG are way better than JPEG.

Since a gif is about 3 times the size of a jpeg normally, the correct answer is jpeg.

since this is 2005 and not 1995 and 28.8 modems are no longer the highest bandwidth available, the file size is pretty much irrelevant, if the difference in size between a jpeg and a gif is going to significantly affect the loading time of the picture for you it is highly unlikely that you have enough experience playing on the internet to provide any meaningful analysis or commentary on someone's pokertracker stats

as fond as my memories are of downloading porn 1/4 inch line at a time and having to wait 10 minutes after seeing tits before even a glimpse of bush can be seen, im pretty sure those days are long gone for most people that can actually afford a computer

the only reason why file size would be an issue would be storage space restrictions on the server hosting the image, but i believe we are talking about a single screenshot, not 10-20 ultra high-resolution digital photographs

This is what I'm referring to since the OP was told to host on imageshack. My avatar on 2+2 has been accessed 23,967 times since I put it on about a month ago (and I was away for 2 weeks without posting). If the OP had a popular topic, his screenshot wouldn't last too long so might as well maximize the free exposure he'd get.

Sorry, but you're wrong, a (PT) screenshot will be much smaller in gif format, and it will be lossless.

If you don't believe me, I challenge you to make a jpg of this under 13k.

You cheat [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I'm talking full screenshots and you're talking about editing it down to what you want.

This is also being done in MS Paint where you can't reduce things down in size by tweaking settings like you can in Photoshop or whatever you use.
