Are they on the internet? On a site someone can use them on? Does IE
support these image types? Netscape? Opera?
Go try them. Just whining doesn't get anything done.

I really really REALLY hope you're reporting layout "wrecks" to the
Voyager list, or bugs.vapor.com.
If you're not.. well.. I'll kill you where you stand for being a whiney
git with no intention of putting anything back into the products you
think NEED improvement.

Find a site that uses these kinds of JPEG's and I'll note it down for Olli to
"fix". Hell, put these JPEG's up on your OWN site (use them in HTML though
for Christ's sake - don't just stick them in a directory). Note down which
applications created them, what's so different about them from normal
JPEG's or PNG's, and what settings you had to select to get those files
created.
Someone will get around to looking at it as and when there are less
important bugs to fix (like crashes, failing JS, missing JS, broken layout,
huge discrepencies, missing tags, GUI issues, in that order :)
Thanks
