The portable network graphics format has been used throughout the wiki, they're of good image quality and moderate file size if the [[images]] are saved correctly. I can't see a lot of jpeg format files being uploaded any time soon. A consistent transition would be if the existing png image files were converted and uploaded in advance instead. But then again, for what reason? --[[User:Ulviirala|Ulviirala]] 21:42, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
I changed it based on the following correspondence with MrBloodworth:

''How about I make the preferred image format = jpg? Isn't that usually better with regard to the size of the images/screenshots we normally need?
''MrBloodworth: Yes, its is the preferred image type for web images and photographs. PNG limits the colors.
I think MrBloodworth has also mentioned something about providing rendered (outside the game) images like he did with the new streetlamps. I was sort of waiting for that (taking in mind that he's busy with other jobs too).
Also I feel many of the images allready on the wiki are too dark and that the items in them doesn't really stand out too well from the background. I many cases I find myself having to strain my eyes a bit much to see what's actually in them (especially regarding the thumbnails). I'd appreciate if contributors would make an effort to provide screenshots taken in bright daylight and where appropriate with sand or similar as background.
If people really feel like, of course we could change the image format back. [[User:Arvid|Arvid]] 12:42, 25 May 2010 (UTC)
