Also, it should be made clear that you don't need convert
images to gif format before you are able to use jpeg format.

The above sentence just points out that the author is not

The announce looked like advertisement (commercial), it is bad way
to present programs to readers who mainly are computer oriented
(programmers, CS students, etc.) anyway.

Why not give immediately critical announce where pros&cons
are discussed fully?
