Perhaps you are missing a central tenant of both PNG and MNG: they compress losslessly; MPEG and JPG, don't. JPEG is not the format to use for small images with lots of text. PNG is not the format to use for photographs. Each format has its place. On 24 Apr 2002, Anon. Coward wrote:
I really tried to like .pngs, but at least from Gimp, filesizes are 10x larger than .jpg for the same pic.
Same with .mng vs mpg. (Suse's spinning globe, for example)
