what bear is referring to.....editing before posting, concerns file size and download time for those still on slow dial-up connections

the photo above has been saved and uploaded in .PNG format

by saving in the .png format there is very little image compression applied so that the file size your computer needs to download to see the image will be massive.

in this case the photos file size is 1,523,396 bytes also known as 1-1/2 megs
on a slow rusty wire dial-up connection that could take a while........a long while



.png format is mainly used to save images for printing at the highest quality

for posting pictures on web pages or forums the .JPG or .GIF format is used for smaller file sizes and faster pageload time
