I think most time I would let it happen slowly , but this time was nice . <| sep |> For when someone posts a compressed imageuses Windows XP to save a jpeg . pdosHello ! If you are reading this , you have probably committed an atrocity ! Assuming that you are using Windows XP , it is a mostly stable operating system that is still used past its expiration date . However , like many of the other stock programs that Microsoft ships with their OS , Windows Paint is not always the best choice when editing images to be posted on the internet . Much of the original quality of images can be lost when exporting directly from Windows Paint . It can still be avoided , however , by exportingsaving your image as a . PNG , and NOT a JPEG . This rule may not apply to Windows Vista or 7 as far as I know . Also not sure about Macs or Unix OSes . in Comedy 4 , 556 , 280 views since May 2013 bot info
