Hi Chris,

Thanks for the heads-up!

Looking at this new format seems to fit better other scopes like, for instance, videogames.

Cheers,

Hi All,

This new compressed image format looks like a good fit with Gemini. It's a

"simple" format that works with very small implementations. I think it

would be a great addition to the Gemini browsers out there and could make

browsing even faster.
