Image File Sizes - png vs jpg

[Arcus_Aesopi]

I don't recall in which topic it appeared, but some folks are apparently reaching their limit for uploaded images.  I did a quick comparison on a recent post and noted that this image is 1.54 MB if uploaded as a png file, but only 237 KB as a jpg.  If you're wondering on how to be more efficient because you're a prolific image poster... keep it in mind.

There is definitely a quality loss with a jpg (or jpeg), but not a big deal to me for most of the graphical content on the site.  This starts as a 1440p screen image and this is the .jpg 

Mods, please move where appropriate if there's another better location for this... or just ignore.  🙂

The fix, as far as we know, is to use an external image hosting service. We have a run down on what's available here:
