    I work as a front-end and back-end Web developer. You have no idea how many times users, clients and even developers do this mistake. Somewhere, there's a tutorial about file formats, teachers, FAQs or something that teaches things the wrong way.

    I call it the "JPEG for everything" syndrome. I once taught a lesson to a friend who kept doing this. One day he asked for an Excel file and I sent it a screen capture of the data, saved in JPEG at 1% quality.

    There's the basic problem of all Adobe software making bloated PNGs in the first place. Easily solved if you use a PNG optimization program as you say. Myself, I use ImageOptim when working on websites.

    The problem, however, is probably moron programmers who save everything in JPEG at 100% quality instead of using PNG.
