Hi,

What does converting them to JPG do to the size ?? I've taken images

It really depends on the image. A lot of my artwork is ray-traced, and contains very smooth color transitions. Converting such an image will produce severe "banding", and the smoothing will no longer be "smooth".

For an example of such an image, have a look at the cuddletech e17 page,
where I have submitted an image of a planet surface. The bright yellow sun
in the middle, causes a very smooth color transition in the atmosphere, but
in the .jpg screenshot, this becomes banded. I believe the original .png was
around 900K, and the .jpg was around 150K. If you can view the "ebits" inside
the available download, you will clearly see how much better the original looks.

Sorry, but I didn't mean PNG-to-JPG conversions in general, but specifically with the images included in E's built-in help system. I'm guessing most are under 200x200 in size, aren't they ??
