Every time you save a JPEG image, information gets lost in the file. Usually the difference is hard to tell, but the fact still remains that a JPEG is a lossy format.

With that said, what if you were to save a JPEG 600 times over and each time you saved it you compressed it a bit more too? This video above shows the results.
