    Default JPEG2000 Anyone?

    I have never paid much (any) attention to jpeg2000, but recently the file reference seems to be popping up more often. Does anyone use this file type, or know where it's expected to go (more common or dead)? From what I've read, support is still somewhat lacking industry-wide, and I don't want to delve into something new that isn't fully supported in all browsers. Any comments?

    So if JPWG2000 was on the scene in Year 2000, it could be said it has had a slow uptake:

    I know it's been quite a long time, just wondering if anyone has stayed up on where it's headed, if anywhere.

    I've been playing with them lately as they seem like they should be the obvious choice, given that they can resolve many more shades of color, fewer artifacts, and in my experimentation, smaller in file size. However, the format isn't universally supported so that is the major drawback.

    I tried to upload a jpg2000 image file into this message and it was rejected as an unsupported file type.
    Sheesh !

    Kind of sad, it even supported transparency.
