    Hey, hang on there for a moment and calm down. I don't believe for
one minute that any of the guys and girls here *wouldn't want* a
better file format to show others their images. I for one, certainly
would, and agree with your efforts to show/prove this with JPEG2000.
BUT, sweeping statements like yours above though, Imjer, offend even
me, but then again, who am I? I've been using PoV for only four years,
and I still consider myself as a novice. I'm not a professional pover,
and I know I *never* will be, but I love these groups and the images
posted, and the people here, and the advice and ideas given. To me,
jpg's fine. Hey, most of the time, I don't even see an artifact, so
PNG or JPEG2000 is useless to me!

    The whole crux of this is that you should have presented your
argument in a much better way, present your argument and ask something
like, "I'm trying this JPEG2000 format, I think it's better and we
should at least have a look at it - what do you guys think? Can anyone
download it?"

    You would have then had the honest answers that you required and
could have moved on further to perhaps complete that goal somehow,
perhaps with support from someone in these groups.

   Personally, I think your work is fantastic and wish that you would
post more often, it's not *my* poving style, but nevertheless, I
always wonder how you do such images - you have a great talent there.

   KIS. Keep It Simple. I think we're all FOR moving forwards, but
let's take it one step at a time eh...?
