None action from IE are lossy like with JPG !

1 / you load the image to decode JPEG data. In memory we working on RAW image 
data. There is _NO_ compression !!!

2/ When you save the image in a JPEG file, you reencode it and you have a risk 
to lost any image quality. JPEG is a suck file format to correcting photos !

3/ To limit this problem with JPEG, you need to put JPEG quality setting to 
max value.
