A file format, used by one company, isn't going to change the world. JPG and PNG are here to stay. Love it or hate it... they are the lowest common denominator

JPG and PNG are here to stay. Love it or hate it... they are the lowest common denominator for image formats.
- lazyjeff 6y agoFile formats change fast. It was not too long ago PNG was the newcomer, and people were touting how much better it was than GIF for non-photographs (alpha transparency, better compression, etc.). It has been successful, and now almost all applications support it. Same thing with moving from AVI to the MPEG formats in video. New formats are a good thing, and fast adoption of them is good for users.
