...if the admins has nothing against it :>

...If you want these forums to be shut down in the nearest future...
The free space left is 200MB (from 400MB). Your screenshot is 0.5MB. Count yourself. But even the bigger problem is that the search engines spiders eat bandwidth by indexing them on a regular basis. At the moment I blocked them until I resolve that picture indexing problem.
So, at least try to make smaller *.png ...

oh, I apologize
|
No, no need to apologize. You can post screenshots but I just think *.png format is much more compact than *.jpg for them.
|
Incorrect...

Then share your knowledge and tell how to make my screenshot smaller *.jpp...

Edit: Without losing quality.
|
.jpg (what is .jpp?) is always losing quality. That is why it produces smaller files... whereas .png is lossless format, and even not very good one (it internally uses zlib to compress scanlines of image, not very effective...).
.jpg of real-world picture will always be order of magnitude shorter than .png (real world pictures do not compress well using zlib).
For screenshots, this may or might not be true - usually you can get order of magnitude shorter .jpg, but with visible degradation. In this particular case, .jpg is way better, because there is a lot of color transitions and real-world picture background.

That means, anyway, for the same quality png is smaller, especiallly screenshots...  Or can you demonstrate otherwise with my screenshot?
|
Yes, that is by definition.
However, to conserve forum space, you should rather recommend using low-quality .jpg - they would still be good enough to provide the information, but 3-4 times shorter.

In this case, .png is made shorter because there are very big areas of single color (white, light-gray). Those compress well with zlib.
However, still considering now deleted screenshot that started this discussion, that one WOULD be shorter using .jpg.
Anyway, I guess we could agree: to show us how many nice backgrounds you have in your XP desktop, upload elsewhere and post link. For screenshots dealing with actual problems, use either .png or .jpg, what fits better. Us as much compression as possible.

Agree, but I expected that people would post screenshots with a lot of single color...
