:Yes. I noticed it a while back that the mice images used to be in PNG, but now if you download them they are JPG. In my opinion, we should keep the best resolution available, so that if we have PNGs, keep them, but for any new mice we have to go with JPG. BTW, calling the issue "low resolution" is somewhat misleading. I thought it was referring to the actual size of the picture at first. -- [[User:Camomiletea|Camomiletea]] 05:16, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

::Well lower resolution does refer to a lower quality image (file size is smaller), and not to the image dimensions. The dimension is correct in most cases. I'm thinking what else to name it. It isn't exactly low quality, because I had to zoom in many times before the difference in quality became obvious, so I can see why the developers opted for the .jpg instead. I'll rename wrong size to wrong dimension to make it clearer, and I'll rename low res to '.jpg' and the best resolution will get a '.png' remark so we can see at a glance. -- [[User:Grexx|Grexx]] 07:25, 11 October 2009 (UTC)

Mice Images

It seems like the developers have lowered the resolution of the mice images from .png to .jpg, but I'd like someone else to confirm that just in case. Once that is confirmed, we'll need to decide if we want to switch all current .png images over the the lower resolution .jpg format. -- Grexx 16:27, 10 October 2009 (UTC)
