>>80804 you're right about the first part
but the strength of png isn't just for palette-restricted images. pretty much anything non-animated that requires transparency, png is your best bet. also, it serves as a decent intermediate between the filesize of jpg and the quality of tiff, so if you're looking to preserve every last speck of image quality and you don't need things like image pyramids, layers, etc
>>80797 direct jpg conversion to png is worthless, but if you do anything to the jpg in between, then it isn't. even cropping, when you go back to re-save the jpg, you get slightly more loss. sure, it's still retarded for fairly negligible amounts of loss, but there is *a* difference
