style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Following an answer I picked up on
this mailing list, I have tried setting my FORMAT type to each of the three
listed image types. I do this in this in the ajaxmappane.templ file.
When working with photos I get a nice benefit from changing the default from PNG
to GIF. The GIF images produced in the <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">AJAX</st1:place></st1:City> viewer are about 1/3<SUP>rd</SUP> the size
of the PNG images. That has to have a positive impact on
performance.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">However, when I try JPG, the image
looks like garbage. It seems that the JPG is produced with near maximum
compression and so loses almost all detail. Can the compression rate be
set in some fashion, by editing a file or adding an argument to the URL
constructor?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
