We like pic too, smaller than tifs.
We did have some problem with pic in some of the Photoshop versions
when the pic alpha channel layer gets change to transparency layer

So I am curious why no one is using SI pic? That is the native format.

png is an excellent format regardless of what it was designed

I use png's as much as possible, never seems to be a
problem with texturing or rendering.
Good lossless compression keeps re-load times down
when compositing.
Flame/Smoke can't load them of course!
