jpg compatibility issues

JPEGs produced by Gimp are used on the web in their vast majority so using the progressive mode by default make sense. And if you want something else, it is easy to change the default...

The idea that my preference might not be predominant is a perfectly valid argument for setting the default as is.  Even so, it seems to me that the affect of this choice is significant enough that users, especially we novices, ought to be made aware of what we're doing.  I unknowingly invested quite a bit of time and effort producing a lot of files that I've now learned are less desirable for my purpose than if I had a better idea of what I was doing.  Absent nothing but some frivolous curiosity I'd still be doing it and may never have figured it out.

Thanks to this forum I'll at least be able to correct the problem by redoing a lot of the work.  This experience has also convinced me that archiving the GIMP (i.e., .xcf) files is a worthwhile endeavor.
