Actually, I can't remember why jpgs were used in the original. It is a bad
choice for screen shots of things like Ethereal. However, the GIF patents
have expired now. They did so over a year ago now, I believe.
AFAIK, the patents are still valid in some countries. They will expire in these days now, but I would think png should do the job.
