The recent thread on png vs jpg might provide some helpful information. I'll try to give a brief answer. Jpeg throws away much of the information contained in the picture. If you just want to look at the picture but don't want to edit it, jpeg should be ok. Png doesn't throw away any of

I've looked at going outside gd for years, but most providers do tend to nickle and dime everyone to death. I've wanted to just get dedicated hosts, but hard to justify $200/mo per box to *play* with. Virtual just isn't that attractive as at the end of the day, there is resource contention
