jpg tends to blend/blur colors when you optimize them a tad too much...

when you do this too text based images they get ugly...gifs are limited to 256 colors, however, if you need 256 colors you're almost always bettr off converting it to gif


Text images are mostly low color pics when cut right, that's why gif is the best..low size, much sharper since gifs don't get blurry

There must be a better explanation for it but just try and test for yourlself

Download the fireworks trial at macromedia and give it a shot
