Simple Suggestion: Use PNGs instead of JPGs #120
Comments
Hi Kasim, I think that's probably a good idea. We originally used JPG because PNGs Either way I'm pretty sure PNGs are the way to go and thanks for giving us Cheers Mark B PS You may be interested in this article : On 19 December 2012 23:47, Kasim Ahmic notifications@github.com wrote:

I had a little extra time today so I managed to finish the entire HD skin (well the jplayer.blue.monday.png file anyway). Here's the download for the skin: http://www.mediafire.com/?l7h4zyff70co9df |

No problem! Also, take a look at the Pull Request I submitted: #121 I updated it with an SD version of the skin. |
Closing this issue, but will leave PR open. |
I've noticed this quite a while ago but for whatever reason, I've never brought it up. In the Blue Monday and Pink Flag skins, the images with all the controls (jplayer.blue.monday.jpg and jplayer.pink.flag.jpg) are actually pretty low quality. Take a look below.
Low Quality:
After just a minute or two of work:
You can clearly tell that the second image is cleaner and the color is much more uniform throught the controls. The reason the image is sort of low quality could be due to the image constantly being exported when it was made. JPGs gradually lose quality over time with each export.
If you were to switch to PNGs, you could support transparency, reduce the file size (albeit only slightly), and you won't lose quality every time you export the image. This is still just a suggestion though. I'm not saying that you absolutely need to implement this.
