That's the jpg one... demo.. I have the bmp version uploaded, and it's the best quality one I have, so if you wanna see it a bit more clear the look @ it, except because of the size it takes an annoying 5+ minutes to work. ~_~;
:3 This idear crossed my mind, but I'm too un-able to do it alone... but.. has anyone thought of possibly starting a fan-art site for .hack fan-art? Because I've seen many many nice piccu's that should be shown to others because they're so pretty. X3;
If anyone ever wants to start one, I'd be honored to help out with starting it and help update it and such. ^_^; But I wouldn't be able to handle a site all alone.
Hrm... I'd volunteer, but I've got a lot of stuff to work on already and don't have the time to deal with it. But theres space for cheap where I host my pages at dragonpalace.net. Maybe you could get a page there?
Thats a really good picture too! Maha's always been hard for me to draw, and that perspective on Tsukasa's staff is nice too. n_n
Adobe photoshop 4.0. o_o; It takes quite a while to finish a picture, though. XD; I had to restart from Maha because when I went to save my comp crashed. >_>; So I was maaaaad.
Whooo... Old program. o.o;; I've been using photoshop since like... 5.0 was out. n.n However, it's still an excellent tool. I don't know very much 'bout what's different between 4.0 and 7.0 because it's been so long, so... @.@;;;
Yeah, the pic looks great, though. And I feel your pain on the Maha problem. I accidentally crashed photoshop working on my cosplay photo edit thingy for my class, and I hadn't had a chance to save all the edits I had done yet. That hurt a lot. @.@;;

Actually, you can save a jpg to be full quality and it won't be nearly as large >__> even at 82% quality, it's so much smaller and still nice looking. I'd recommend it, myself >.o;
.png and .tiff formats are nice as well as a .jpg... .tiff is a little big... ok, pretty big, but it doesn't try to compress like .jpg does. ^_^; And IIRC, it's not as big as a .bmp either. XD
and god said unto cain, "wow you're pretty stupid."
.png and .tif are also considered unnatural with regular webdesigning ideas in mind. Not all computers read .png properly, and .tiff files are more than just a 'little' big. My projects have to be turned in as PSD and TIF... and I have to turn 'em in on a CD. Usually, both files, in the end... would be that the psd is well over 10-15 megs, and the tif is never below 6 for me. n.n;;
They're very troublesome to deal with. Heck, that's why I rarely visit oekaki boards. My main computer -hates- png files with a passion. o.o

My desktop refuses to read .png files, which is somewhat aggravating when there's art I'd like to see ^^
I save, always, in .jpg because it's the easiest and most common format, beside .gif files, for viewing online. Otherwise I just keep them in their original file format, which is generally .rif or .psd (depending on what program I'm using ^^ )
