Hi Gerrie The problem is that JPEG is a lossy compression (i.e. you lose quality when you compress) so the more you try and get the file size smaller the more quality you're gonna drop. Also JPEG isn't very good at compressing solid blocks of colour. Best think to do would be to have the graphic

I agree that they are different that's why I put the comment in as a quote. I don't know of any current browsers that don't honor it. From the one chart I saw basically all browsers post NN 3 and IE 4 will honor it but the chart I saw was out of date (on Netscape's Developers site) so I don't
