True, you do lose some quality, but that's because it takes up less space, and space equals bandwidth, and that equals money for Neal and loading time for everybody else.

Courtship rituals between ships and torpedos
A merchant by her lonesome* was wandering the seas seeking her perfect mate. She had several suitors, none of whom she cared for, but one which was persistent eventually swept her off her keel. She fell for him hard, but alas, like many men of the sea, he broke her heart in two and left her crying tears of bubbles as she plunged into the murky depths of despair.
Enjoy. --fj (*actually it was a small convoy, but "lonesome" sounds better for literary effect) (screenshots adjusted for cropping, contrast/brightness, color balance, and color curves) Last edited by flapjack; 05-30-10 at 09:21 PM. |

I know what you're saying. I'm not hosting my pics on Subsim. So Neal doesn't have to worry about it. Yes they may take time to load, but so does everyone else's. Imageshack is a good clean provider. If people can't load a .png or bitmap, that's not my fault. That's why I bought a new computer.

Strange and wonderful sights
I took a few more screenshots here and there. I think these well-represent the great experiences I've had with this game. Hope you enjoy!!

It's about connection speed, and how much bandwith the host allows for downloading images. I've got a 8Mb connection, which is plenty for everything else, but .png is rather slow to load. Just a few ain't too bad, but a whole page of a thread would become problematic. Please, do people who watch your screenshots a favor and convert them to .jpg. Posting .png will just piss people off, and I doubt that's why you're uploading screenshots.
