I had a moment of inspiration and created #ggg take a look (still #experimental #foss software)

ggg: #guile #scheme #glyph #generator

codeberg.org/jjba23/ggg

Through #svg generation from #lisp we leverage a (wip) #dsl and apply some #math knowledge to build pixel perfect project #markdown / #org badges.

It also scripts #imagemagick to export to #png or #webp .

You can then use the svgs in your #codeberg (or #github) repository #readme for example.

I provide a #guix manifest in the repo

YES!!! #AVIF #FTW!!!

Just FYI, nsxiv, imv, and swayimg all support AVIF as well, although imv did oddly have a glitch with one of the images I tested it with. I'd never seen that happen before.

According to some people I've spoken with, JPEG is still king for high-fidelity images and minimizing loss upon re-compression, but AVIF just totally whips the llama's posterior when it comes to relatively high fidelity at crazy low file sizes (high compression).

AVIF is often noticeably better quality than #WebP at the same (low) file size and resolution, and parsecs beyond what JPEG can do with high compression factors.

If only the fediverse supported it!!! :(

We barely have WebP support (mostly on #GtS, maybe #snac (haven't tried it)), not on #Mastodon.

No obvious results from web searches, so:

I'm creating an image gallery on a static HTML website. I take full resolution images (#webp, #png) from users and generate thumbnails and index pages with <figure> and <figcaption>. I am struggling with a good way to have users provide a caption of each image, because EXIF / XMP in modern formats has terrible tool support.

My current thinking is a csv file with filename and figcaption.

Have you implemented a better solution? If not, please boost.

I just updated my #MSDOS image viewer/converter #DosView

* Updated libjpeg to 9f.
* Updated libjasper to 4.2.4.
* Fixed a crash when running out of memory during loading/display.
* Fixed version number when running DosView.
* Added help overlay in view mode.
* Patched Allegro to support more BMP formats.
* Fixed DE LSM for FreeDOS.

If you're hosting Immich on a spare computer, using an old external disk drive, reduce your storage requirements by converting your Jpeg files to webp. Keep the .jpg extension too! You can probably get them down to about half the size of a Jpeg.

This is really only if you're exporting files from elsewhere to Immich. I export from Lightroom Classic. Don't ever go touch your original files!

cwebp -metadata all "$i" -q 70 -m 6 -o out.tmp

Forøvrig, "faksimilen" er en 2 bits #PNG med 3 farger som #oxipng github.com/shssoichiro/oxipng med `Z`-opsjonen klarer å komprimere til ca 120 kB i løpet av 1 min (!)

Med cjxl github.com/libjxl/libjxl med `-d 0`, dvs. lossless (uten tap) og med `--effort` satt til foreløpig maks (10), så blir resultatet en JPEG XL på 28 kB i løpet av ca 1 min.

Istedenfor diller man med #webp pga internkrangling i Google.
