  • Is Twitter allowing pngs now/again? I see the image was sourced from the "name=4096x4096" url which is not preferred, but
    https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EPHoLeMUEAEHooR?format=png&name=orig
    doesn't seem to work.
    https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EPHoLeMUEAEHooR?format=jpg&name=orig
    does work and looks the same as this "format=png&name=4096x4096" version, but I can't do a boolean compare to know for sure. If this png is just the "format=jpg&name=orig" version with an unnecessarily bloated file size, the latter would be preferred.

    I'm going to be honest, I have no clue. I just used what Stoic5 linked as the full version in his FA post.

    Twitter does sometimes, though it's specific circumstances. Like, the file in question needs to be both under 256 colors and fit the resolution max of twitter if I remember correctly otherwise site converts file to jpg.

    Too busy/tired to rewrite: forum #279644

    Also if you look at the FA descriptions, it's artists making this mistake, commented for them about this.
