Just briefly (since I got to run off in a while): Using any kind of lossy compression in that place is just plain broken. Since we don't know about the nature of the graphic (e.g., whether it is partly translucent, hand drawn, a picture you imported or whatever) we simply mustn't use lossy compression. So the only real alternative is PNG - which is effectively what you get when you just use the regular hibernation (RLE encoding) and GZ compression. IOW: _Anything_ you do in this place is too much. What was in there originally is the only thing you _can_ do. BTW, we fixed this problem in the Squeakland plugin image (Mike's got the fix somewhere - I'm surprised he didn't send it to Squeak-Dev but now he's off and won't be able to get back to email for another two days). Cheers, - Andreas
