::Could we use transparency instead of white? I have a thing against big white spaces on the blue DYK background, and the computer I'm on only has Paint. [[User:Crisco 1492|Crisco 1492]] ([[User talk:Crisco 1492|talk]]) 12:58, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
:::jpeg doesn't support transparency; png does, but wikimedia software renders png files significantly less sharp than jpg (in a 100x100px thumb). [[User:Materialscientist|Materialscientist]] ([[User talk:Materialscientist|talk]]) 13:08, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
::::How does it handle gif or tiff? Both support transparency, and Photoshop can handle both (GIMP too, probably). [[User:Crisco 1492|Crisco 1492]] ([[User talk:Crisco 1492|talk]]) 13:18, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
:::::I'm not a big fan of PNG for photographic type images, however, I can create a smaller PNG version with transparency for use in your DYK effort if you wish. [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta|talk]]) 13:33, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
::::::An alternative is to use something like the right image (it can be tweaked, but I've got to go offline). [[User:Materialscientist|Materialscientist]] ([[User talk:Materialscientist|talk]]) 13:43, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
:::::::Excellent solution. [[User:Jbarta|JBarta]] ([[User talk:Jbarta|talk]]) 13:46, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
:::::::*Fantastic. Thanks. [[User:Crisco 1492|Crisco 1492]] ([[User talk:Crisco 1492|talk]]) 13:49, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
