PSP's own native format also saves EXIf data and unlike JPG does not induce
a "lossy" issues associated with JPG. It's never a good idea to safe a JPG
out as another JPG .It's a bit like photocopying a copy then photocopying
the copy you've just made rather than the original.

Any photo's I download from any digital camera I save copies as bitmap
formats (such as TIFF, BMP PSP etc) and work on those but keeping the
original JPG files stored.
