# No, gif is the right choice to preserve fine detail.
The reason it's massive is because it's actually 1000 pixels wide and has only been scaled down in HTML.

# if you want fine detail then png is your friend
gif fucks the colours down to 255 and has a compression algorithm that hasn't changed since 1995
It's fine for animations or reduced palette work but not much else. And I'm guessing this originally was more colours
