 What do you think are benefits of using jpegs with quality above 95%?

 I have absolutely no idea, it is just that I came across a reference
 somewhere which said I use 98% jpeg compression when archiving images.

 Better use compressed 8-bit sRGB TIFF instead (all minilabs I know
 would reject TIFF with *any* compression, though...).

 Why is that?

Why is WHAT???  You need to Trim the posting more precisely...

If you mean why TIFF?:  Since TIFF provides no-artefacts storage at
the same size as what you got from your JPEG (which WILL create artefacts).

Why 8-bit?  I already discussed that; and since your input is 8-bit,
most probably you won't get any advantage from 16-bit.  (Well,
currently GIMP won't even produce 16-bit...)

Why compressed?  To save size...

Puzzled,
Ilya

I wonder if the questioner meant why do minilabs reject TIFF with *any*

[Gimp-user] contribute to my cause

2009-10-05 Thread harold
hello..

I'm creating a linux distro which is the first in my country (Dominican
repolishing) but still do not have artwork, I have nothing prepared and if
they can not help to create the wallpaper and boot screens like the logo .

Keep in mind that the name of the distro could be even amber palm tree but
can not bring myself to leave your comments about this.

I'm not asking anyone to believe all this only if someone wants to help
with
that and to spare some time to be grateful .. because I have very little
time
for work and college to put myself to create the art ..

Thank you all for reading this ..

Happy-Word

Apparently you want to create a linux distribution and are looking 
for help.
There are alot of talented people on this list, but the list itself 
is not really meant for that type of discussion. It is more related 
to specific questions concerning gimp.

I would suggest you post your question one more time.
When you do, please include an e-mail address you can be reached at 
and perhaps a link to your web site / facebook / whatever.
That way people will be able to contact and help you with out 
dilluting the content of this list

One other thing , you might look into suse studio, or one of the 
other re-spin projects and see if they have something that would 
be useful to you

Hope this Helps

See ya
