So I’ve been looking into ways to save a lot of storage space — and I mean a lot! 😅 It turns out that switching from PNG images to JPG can save up to 90% of the file size 😱 That’s huge!

It would make uploads faster, downloads lighter, and storage way more manageable 🧁The only trade-off is that JPGs are a tiny bit more compressed than PNGs — but honestly, I almost can’t tell the difference anymore with high quality settings ✨ Previews below!I've also added zip files with 12 images in them so you can properly check.The PNG Zip of 12 images is 145mb. While the JPG Zip is ONLY 14.6mb. Kaitlyn's set of 1.43GB would then be 143mb. (Resolution stays the same)

💭 So here’s the question:Would you be okay if I start using JPG for new posts (starting with the new theme on November 1st) instead of PNG? 📸

I won’t be converting the entire history of images — that would take me forever 🥲 — just new ones going forward!

Cast your vote below and let me know what you think! 💌I really value your feedback before I make the switch 💕

In general, reducing the size of the file is a plus. Only asking how the quality difference of photos will look in a larger size, for example on a computer monitor. Especially when it comes to setting Pics on the monitor wallpaper. Of course, if this difference is also not visible on a larger screen, I am in favor of JPG.

You really have to zoom in to see the difference, and besides, it will save me from doing it myself! So I'm in favor!

I can't tell the difference to save my soul. I say go for it! Besides, it will help my poor hard drive too. She's almost out of room. Too much awesomeness.

I'm not a huge fan of cutting on quality, admittedly. Personally, the main draw of these artworks was the stunning lifelike quality. I've seen others come close, but there are usually a lot more errors (blurred mouth/appendages, obviously too many fingers, etc). However, I understand the need for a sustainable approach in the long term. And I'm sure keeping an extensive library of extremely high quality images eats up storage options fast. If you're stuck between, "raising subscription prices hard to cover upkeep for ever growing storage needs" and "switch to a different format"; I'd understand.

Heya! I get what you mean! At this moment a daily set is 1.5gb of space. That means every single year the usage will grow bij 550gb (Excluding commissions. Which almost doubles it).For me it's not a problem. Storage isn't too expensive. But what I fear is that at a point. People can't download my work anymore because it's getting too much to store

I can't even tell the difference.

Marshy123

I've been switching my images from PNG to JPG for ages and I don't think it takes away any of the quality, so yes please switch to JPG.

Katsuragi

I'm a data hoarder so I live with this problem 24/7 in my mind. I do force myself to accept "good enough" but it ain't easy lol. Bottom line, Im fine either way, I suppose.

Matthew Kreps

I've already been converting my PNG files to JPEG. So please go ahead and save me that step!

Archangel AI

If the resolution is staying the same it shouldn't affect the image. From the examples I'd have to zoom in a lot to see minor differences. Make the change is my vote. I'm pretty sure the folder is have with your artwork is already massive, slowing that down is good with me. 😂

I just downloaded both examples and the difference in space used is HUGE! 15000 compared to 149000 difference.

Undeworld89

So time to redownload all the pictures in jpg format to save space on my phone? 😂😂

Redman

I prefer PNG, but I browse on my desktop, not a tablet or phone.

soul

I don't see any decrease in quality by doing this. I've been converting the images to jpeg to save space myself, so I think this is a good move. Besides, loading the images faster on the browser due to smaller size is also a plus.

Girlyvader

I am very OK with being able to have more than 5 sets of images on my phone at once, yes please stop with the bloated file size!

Roxous01

Seems fine to me

Norbie67

Quality looks fine to me

David Sivesy

png please, prefer not to loss picture detail

Daisuke021

Having a huge monitor and good gpu card will make a huge difference between jpg and png files. perferrly i would rather have png format due to many factor it doesn't have loose tolerance between pixel distortions.
