Midterm Question #5

Here are two of the same pictures, but saved as different file types:

This first image is a jpeg, but not an ordinary jpeg!  It is a progressive jpeg which means that the image loads different scans - that is, while the image is first loading, it will show a bad quality image.  As the image keeps loading, the quality keeps getting better.
I was able to save it as progressive in GIMPshop by saving as a jpeg and going to the advanced options and selecting "progressive".



Here is the png image as an interlaced png.  This means that the image is loaded by small bits at a time.  As with the jpeg image, I saved the file as a png and went into the advanced options and selected "interlaced".
