I wish wavelet compression would catch on. My preferred image

Maybe in a couple-three years.
Luckily, it's called JPEG2000 for a reason. It's the new standard for

(It takes more computing horsepower to compress the images, so it may
be longer before, say, digital cameras produce jpeg2000 images directly.)
