Yes, it just depends on the raytracer doesn't it?  :)

MIRO is pretty good though.

There was a great one on Iterated System's website (www.iterated.com), but I
can't seem to find it (the site's so damn big!!!).  It was very fast and
efficient... shame I can't find the installation file any more... :)

  This is a FAQ, not a misunderstanding. I can add it to the VFAQ page
if you want.

Who thinks that JPEG works by reducing colors?  I've never come accross that
legend.  People either know the difference between JPEG and GIF, or they
have no clue how they work at all, in my experience.

There are quite a few people out there who think that JPEG-files will
always be smaller than GIF files. I think the faq should mention that.

A penny for your thoughts.
Mine are more expensive.

  I added a note about this.
