Do I Look Like I Know What a JPEG is?
🤣
Because of iCarly, I know EG(experts group) from MPEG.
Wonder how many people got that reference.
I suppose, there was not enough space for experts, so they renamed it to JPG.
The experts got squeezed out
That´s why they call it a "lossy" compression...
lol
Yes. I've no idea why I know though.
The longer name for .jpg files. ;)
I knew it was the name of the committee that developed it. But there was no chance that I'd remember the name of that committee.
I absolutely did not 😂
Jraphics photos excellent graphics
Just Pixels Exactly Glued? It has to be, isn't it???
Edit
Never mind, I already saw the answer.
ACTUALLY it's pronounced g-peg 🤓
Haha did not know that.
I know SVG…
(Scalable Vector Graphics)
GIF
(Graphics Interchange Format)
And a couple of others.
What about web prefixes like HTTPS and WSS? Or code abbreviations like HTML, CSS, or JS?
(Most of those are easy)
Thanks for the post, it was fun.
Yeah I was sure the G stood for Graphics
