The JPG-representation of the same sample, on purpose saved with a lot of loss (very compressed). Notice how the system has chunked the image into squares and how each square is almost correct, but not quite.

The naked eye will usually not be able to see the deterioration, but this 800% enlargement shows it clearly. Click to switch between article and full sample.
