    A) PNG is bloated and unecessary

    B) PNG is appropriate and incredibly efficient

    Also, JPEGs look like artifacty shit until they get to a similar size.

    C) PNG is a useful image format for lossless compression and transparency, and should be considered for use on a case-by-base basis along with other formats.

    it should be used in all cases outside of HUGE pictures, shitty servers, and/or a .svg is available.

    Situation-dependent.

    Some images work great as PNGs: Specifically, images where colors are repeated and widespread. Vectors come to mind here. For this, their lossless compression is great, and is very beneficial, as .jpg artifacts can look especially bad on those. Small web graphics fit into this category as well.

    .jpg should always be used if the above doesn't apply to your image. If it's a photo with many different colors, and many fine details that really don't make .jpg artifacts that bad, then there's no reason to use .png. Uploading a .png of your desktop to 4chan, for instance, is retarded. There's no need for such a large image, especially when the site is slow and shitty as it is. Why post such a large lossless image when no-one will care if you post a significantly smaller .jpg? It's not like people will flip on you over the loss in quality. If anything, you'll probably be in everyone's favor because you used the appropriate format at the appropriate time.

    PNG for graphics, JPG for normal images.
