Very few programs will do that, and those are not what the average user will have on his/her PC.

If you see your jpeg displayed, and choose save, chances are you're losing quality.

Exactly, which was one of the main points of my last post.

The other main point of that post was that if anyone is to be able to continue work on an existing skin, adding details and generally editing the graphics, then JPG simply won't cut it. Each time that is done some of the quality of the original JPG will be lost in the new release. There is NO program available which can avoid that. (Not for the normal lossy JPG format supported by PS2 libjpg.)

The only way to avoid this, so that people can work on improving/modifying skins released by others without quality loss, is if each such release also includes a lossless version of each skin (such as BMP), in addition to the JPG needed for uLaunchELF.

I wanted that pic posted to be black, not actually all black, but black so it looks like a MC, so meaning highlighted black, but nvm cus I am workign on other stuff. I was going to add at the top, or near the top 3 pics... An HDD, an MC (which I needed) and a CD w/ a drive so it shoes the 3 options of booting Launchelf, or atleast the 3 most popular.
