</div>The uploader has always been looking for PNG only. Though a JPG or GIF<br>
will technically work in core, I haven't bothered to remove that<br>
restriction from the uploader because:<br>
<br>
a) lazy<br>
b) I don't want to see animated GIFs on the directory, anywhere.<br>
C'mon, you know it would happen.<br>
c) lazy<br>
d) If a screenshot is supposed to represent the look of the theme,<br>
then PNG is the better compression for it anyway. JPG works for<br>
photographs, not graphical elements.<br>
e) lazy<br>
<br>
I'm perfectly okay with changing it, but I'd rather there be a better<br>
reason given than "it works okay to have GIF/JPG shots in core code".<br>
PNGs make more sense to me for all sane cases.<br>
