Ooo, no no NO... That's the point: It *is* PNG, *not* JPEG; the pattern has
to repeat exactly for the 3D effect to work, and JPEG would screw that up
totally. That's why the files are so dam big - they're probably much smaller
with JPEG. But hey, what use is a sterogram that doesn't *work*? ;-)

Yeah, I know... (But then, *my* digital camera is so lame it probably
doesn't make any odds. *sigh*) And it would kill the sterograms.
Thanks.
