When I take a picture the phone saves it as jpeg, and I like it to be jpg. Can that be done?

Can we have gif file with sound that can be added to today Plugin?
GIF files are image files and image files alone, I'm afraid. There's simply no way that I know of to embed audio in one. However, one could embed audio into a Flash file, which, of course, can be animated. Don't know if there's an easy way to place a Flash file on the Today screen, however.
Is it possible to alter the thumbnails of the videos on the Tab?
my 3 year old uses it a lot (so obviously he can't read) and I have quite a few videos on there, I would like to alter the thumbnails to another part of the video like I do with the ones for his iPod (I'm trying to ween him of the iPod and onto the Tab, he already uses my Desire more than the iPod)
can anyone help with this?
for example he has 9 videos on there that are spin-offs to the Disney film "Cars" and they all start the same so the thumbnails for them all are the same and there's no filename their either (he can recognise numbers but there's nothing for him to see)
Any help with where the thumbnails are stored and how I can change them?
thanks
I have my each video stored in a folder with a thumbnail image of the movie poster. When I go to my gallery it shows the thumbnails

What do you name the thumbnails?
Does it show them in the "video" app?
I'm using QuickPic and it is one of the best image viewers out there. But there is a problem when it comes to browse the photos by directory structure. QuickPic just displays any folder that has images in it (well of course some can be hidden/excluded), but they all appear on the same level, both parent folders and child folders. Is there any good image viewer that actually lets me browse the directories like a file manager? And I need to be able to view images in thumbnail mode (small or big, size of the thumbnails doesn't matter). Thanks in advance.
if i remember correctly, the miui gallery allows you to view by directory:

I did rotate my photo for 90° in the photo album and save, then the file size become BIGGER than the original one, why will become like this?
Since you didn't mention how bigger the file was, one can only speculate, but did you use lossless rotation?
If yes, the file could grow larger because a) additional metadata added to exif (pic info) b) could be adding thumbnail, c) even lossless rotation requires some of the data to be re-encoded and therefore change file size.
If it wasn't lossless rotation, not only the whole picture was re-encoded and file size changed , but also some of fine detail was lost during compression.

Not sure is it lossless rotation. I just did it in the media album app which is original in s8, use : Edit → Transform → Rotate, then the file size from 3.13MB become 4.60MB

I took some photos tonight with the Samsung Camera app in Pro mode. I have it set to Raw copies in settings (this produces DNG + JPG).
The Trash option is enable in Gallery.
I also have Google Photos installed on the device, so everything was uploaded.
I saw the .DNG raw files after I took the photos. I can confirm both JPG and DNG were produced.
DNG photo files include a small embedded JPG. On the free tier of Google Photos, it only uploads the embedded preview of the raw DNG file which is actually a small JPG.... stupid but whatever. Went into Google Photos after I took photos tonight and manually deleted the uploaded .DNG files because they're essentially oversized thumbnails in Google Photo.
I cannot find the original DNG files ANYWHERE on the device. I didn't delete them but they're gone. I can confirm they were taken because the thumbnail size JPG files uploaded to Google so I'm not making it up but I can't for the life of me find the full size raw files I shot. Any thoughts? Help?
