It sucks as an editor, but it makes a pretty good file reader/converter.

The best JPEG compressor I know of for the Mac is a little cjpeg port 
called "To JPEG". It's old and there's no OS X version (though it runs 
just fine under Classic), but with the chroma downsampling turned off it 
produces very nice images at reasonable file sizes, and vice-versa.

(I'm assuming that you're complaining about JPEG artifacts/blurriness, 
as there seems to be a lot of it in your pic, and I can't think of 
anything else in GraphicConverter that would eliminate detail...)
