About a year ago, I was looking to use .webp on what I was working on, then I found a killer PNG optimizer and could get PNGs that were smaller than the .webp and looked just as good (if not better). Unfortunately, I Have no idea what optimizer that was an*snip*

Song made me think, WEBP was supposed to be the greatest thing since two ply toilet paper a few years back, but has pretty much been bitched out by AVIF.
Think the only major source of WEBP files nowadays are WordPress-based sites.

IMHO, ImageMagik would be overkill for what you asked ChatGPT. That said, I have used CoolText since it first appeared and I believe it uses ImageMagik under the hood. Great and reliable but not needed for simply loading an AVIF

MS didn't support AVIF in Edge until around a year ago, not that MS is a beacon of rationality.
I try to always put stuff in PostImage now, as long as the forum code supports it, I am happy.
One other thing that would really help is support for Rumbl*snip*

No matter what shape the company is in, it would seem like 1 pound is a killer deal, but I imagine that deal includes absorbing all of the existing debt. Still, would imagine the stores still have some merchandise in them. Hoping it sticks around.

Years back, Dragon Basic was for compiling games for game boy/game boy color (IIRC, it supported both). DB was actually a forth compiler. It translated the BASIC to forth and then compiled that into an executable for the GB.

Future of Blitz

I agree with Jay. Kinda why I always liked PowerBASIC. PureBasic is a great modern alternative to PowerBASIC and the Blitz line. It is not just one man, it is a small team, each with different duties and it has been going strong for many, many years. Alw*snip*
