ah... my teacher lied to me... in a "web and graphic design" class currently, I had assumed that since web came first the class would mostly be programming websites, over classes 1 and 2 1 semester each we have maybe had 2 weeks of it at most. anyway enough griping about the class, the teacher told us that .gif and .jpeg had small file sizes with .png having a large file size and the only difference between .gif and .jpeg being that .gif supported transparency
