This file has a JPEG version at Image:Snow_crystals_2b.jpg. Generally, the JPEG version should be used in articles in order to reduce the file size of thumbnail images. However, any edits to the image should be based on this version in order to prevent generational loss, and both versions should be updated. Please do not delete this version, even if it is not being used, because it is not redundant.
