B/W Examples

[Zero compression (GIF)] The original GIF - the fonts on the left are aliased to blend with the background a little better. The fonts on the right are not. (1.98k)
[Low compression (JPG)] Level 25/100 Look closely above the capital letters - you'll see some fuzz. If you don't, upgrade your monitor. =) (3.41k) - a little larger due to the # of colours. Small pictures like this one do not accurately reflect the compression.
[Medium compression (JPG)] Level 50/100 Here you should clearly see the fuzz. (2.15k)
[High compression (JPG)] Level 99/100 And it's most apparent here. The image has completely broken down. (1.17k)
