Well at JPG at MAX quality ~might~ be okay (so long as its lossless
encoding), because the background HAS to be all one color for it to
work correctly in RPG Maker XP. But then the file size is going to be
freaking HUGE. BMP is the same problem, huge file size. GIF would be
the next best choice, it can't achieve as good a compression as PNG on
palette based images, but it comes relatively close. The big thing to
keep in mind though is who I'm making the Sprite Generator for and I'm
bettin if I took a poll the vast majority would want the file in PNG
format. In fact I believe a lot of the other third party sprite
editing tools work off PNG files, which might explain why a good 95%
of all the sprite image material in circulation is in PNG format.
It's also the format that's in use by the program makers themselves
for their base/included sprites. Further most peeps on that level
wouldn't have QuickTime setup as their graphics viewer for PNG (most
would probably have something like ACDSee).
