--- Comment #9 from Tim Starling <[email protected]> 2010-04-23 08:21:08 UTC --- (In reply to comment #8) > Seriously, are you at all familiar with Wikimedia Commons? There's no need for that. I read most of the archives of Durova's blog a month or so ago. She managed to answer the question I was asking, and she did it without insults or abuse. However, that research suggested to me some higher-priority development targets than optional sharpening, such as more efficient and less restricted scaling of very large TIFFs and PNGs, and an increase in the maximum file size limit. The problem with optional sharpening, or indeed any feature that encourages photographic PNGs, is that readers will then be sent a PNG thumbnail. We really want to send them a JPEG unless they specifically ask for a lossless image. With the present feature set, it would be better for all concerned if you could take the time to upload a copy of the image in JPEG format, with a link to the PNG or TIFF in the other_versions parameter, and then encourage the use of the JPEG in articles. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
