Idea: Different file types for radio station logos

Its jpeg or nothing at the moment, Tim, any chance you could incorporate other formats? 

PNG and perhaps a web friendly format like webp would be grand.

Thanks in advance.

Whats driving the need for other formats? Most if not all image viewers offer easy conversion from any format to jpg.

1. Converting a file is a bothersome step when adding a radio station, and it is almost always necessary as radio stations on the web don't usually use a jpeg on their website. 
2. jpeg images always looks a bit crappy to me, especially with blocks of colour (moire patterns edges etc).

The jpg moode station logos look just fine to my eye even on big displays except for the few that have really low res source images to begin with. Nothing can be done about that.

Maybe if there are a significant number of requests I can add to the TODO list.

That does not make them 3D. If you know what 3D means, of course.
