There seems to be a bodhi problem which is preventing me from
commenting. This update converted the wallpaper from JPEG to PNG at
what ImageMagick and GIMP identify as 90% JPEG quality. This causes
significant and ugly artifacts around the fine detail of the branches
-- this image is nearly a worst-case scenario for JPEG. To my eye, it's
pretty bad to about 98%, even -- at that point, there's still
degradation but it kind of blends into the texture rather than standing
out. This is still smaller than the PNG, at least.
Can we re-do these at 99% or 100%? If saving space is important, going
to 4:2:0 chroma subsamping saves about 33% without as much obvious
visual impact on this particular image.
Does it break GNOME if the original .png file *also* stays in place?
That seems like a much less risky change because at this point we don't
know for sure where all that file may be referenced already.
