indeed
spoco2Someone doesn't know how to use manual focus... grrr.
LukinStone...I'm really surprised I was entertained by that. Thank you, internet.
lucky760GIF isn't pronounced JIF, dummy-heads!
Very interesting and looks like a fun challenge, though I kind of wish they'd breakdown each of their respective paths, page by page, just to satisfy my curiosity.

I know! I always have been pronouncing it with a hard "G", not a soft "G". If it were meant to be pronounced with a soft "G" then it would be spelled with a "J"!

Exactly. It's not called the Jraphics Interchange Format.
They'd probably also call that other image format "gay-pegs."
KnivesOutWell, I know I'm going to call them gay-pegs from now on.
What about pangees? How do you pronounce them?>> ^lucky760:

deathcowPNG is obviously PUH-NUG-GUH

Incidentally, GIF is pronounced 'jif':

I'm not particularly happy about that one myself, as it collides with my native tongue rather unfortunately. Just another reason to use PNG, I guess!
