They're talking about slide scanners, PhotoCDs, etc. on another
listserv, and I was wondering if the following quote is true:



"The point is, once compressed with JPEG, a lossy image compression
model,
your image is forever degraded to some degree and while you can convert
image formats, you can never replace the image data which is gone."


Cheers,

Cindy
