The OP is demonstrably an idiot. He calls himself "Developer, CEO of The Student Cloud", and yet he apparently has no clue whatsoever about the most basic compression algorithms. Zipping compressed images is something that my mother does.

Actually, I think the idiot in the room here is you.
Read his response again. The author is asking why, if Chrome does not support gzipped images, it sends "Accept:/ Accept-Encoding:gzip,deflate,sdch" (in other words it states that it will accept any Gzipped content). This is the question no one in this thread is actually answering, instead choosing to nitpick on why the author tried to do something.
Also, calling someone an idiot because they lack understanding of a certain field in computer science? Really? Maybe you should lighten up.
The author wrote up his thoughts as a blog post and took the time to submit it looking for help understanding an issue.
You were unnecessarily rude and condescending in your response. I'm only bringing this up because your account is new. If you're going to take the time to create an account to reply to a post, why would you create an account just to leave this comment?
