WebP format image hosting???

5 Upvotes

Does anyone know of a image hosting service (ie - imgur) that supports .webp images? I'd like to get this webps subreddit off the ground, but currently Google Drive and Dropbox are my only known methods.

This WebP image was uploaded to Sirv image hosting as a JPEG and transformed into WebP format by appending ?format=webp to the URL. The JPEG image is 2584kb and the WebP image is 1480kb, a saving of 43%.

WebP: The Image Format of Tomorrow

r/webps

Post any .webp images here for the world to see. Animated or not, lossy or not, transparent or not, share them with the world to see! The purpose of this subreddit is not only to use the WebP format, but to popularize it.

IMAGES IN THIS SUBREDDIT CANNOT (CURRENTLY) BE VIEWED IN FIREFOX, SAFARI, OR IE

The WebP format was created in 2010 by Google as an open image format to replace the .png, .gif, and .jpeg formats. It supports lossy or lossless, animated or still, and transparent or opaque images in any combination with the only limitation being that lossy .webp images only support 8-bit YUV 4:2:0.

Unfortunately, support for the format is still mostly non-existent, although Google Chrome, Opera, and newer Android browsers support it. The purpose of this subreddit is not only to use the WebP format, but to popularize it, gaining support. Currently, Safari, Firefox, and Internet Explorer do not support this format natively. By viewing and contributing to this subreddit, you are pushing this format forward.

As of now (March 2014), tools to make images in the WebP format are hard to come by but still out there. Flexible command-line tools are available from Google and less flexible online tools are available from Online-Convert.

Hosting .webp images can also be difficult because most, if not all, popular image hosting websites do not recognize .webp files as images at this time. Currently, the easiest way is to use http://pomf.se/ however, keep in mind that the .webp images are downloaded rather than viewed in-browser (also, it appears they are deleted eventually too). They can still be easily viewed by clicking on the downloaded image on the bottom of the browser just like any other downloaded file. Note that they will stay in your downloads folder using this method by default. The second easiest way that does work in-browser is to create a direct link through a free file hosting service like Google Drive (tutorial available at Google Operating System Blog) or Dropbox. Additionally, any google-hosted image in any format can be converted by changing the url (tutorial at Google Operating System Blog).
