Thanks for that. Problem: we're both an open source love-fest organisation and a business. :-)

Funny about the main page JPEGs (we did that for size, but looks like we might have to change back). On my screen I can't see any artifacts, but on some people's, yeah, they're quite bad.



As a general rule, make non-natural textures into png and natural textures into jpg. Natural means a real picture, like a face, a complicated screen-shot, or your office. Unnatural is something like a with simpler colors and flat textures.

A screenshot of a webpage has potential artifacts in shrunken fonts when stored in jpeg.


Do keep in mind that IE doesn't have support for transparency in PNG graphics, however.
