Katchoo's Shipset Thread (aka the ungodly slow DoGa guy).

Wow! That'll sure chew through your transfer limit quick

Nice picture though!

So I guess you're implying the picture of the Nu'Wam ship is too big?

I'll cut it down to a more manageable size.

Put the same pic in jpg format...
BMPs on a web page you mustn't put.
Never.
Ever.

Jpgs lose colors and image quality. Use pngs instead.

Also, have you considered using http://www.spaceports.com instead of Angelfire? They are much much better than Angelfire.

jpgs only lose color and image quality if you make them like 500x500 pixels. If they are a normal sized picture they are perfectly fine and are best for the web. PNGs are good, but they are still quite big and I would only recommend them if the jpgs look bad for that particular image or if you don't mind the size.

Think I've already seen that debate somewhere on the forum... I also think that .png are a bit too big to be used on the web.

All jpgs of every pixel size lose colors. Image size has nothing to do with color loss, except with really, really small pictures (like 20x20 pixels and smaller) because they have few colors in them to be distorted. 128x128 images lose too many colors in jpg form.
