FWIW, my own inclination is to automatically and irrevocably reject any person applying for a position that involves any form of graphic design who didn't know enough not to use the lossy JPEG format for presentation of content that includes a significant amount of text. This guy's portfolio is really hard to read and basically unattractive simply because he used the wrong file format.

Yes, this is a pet peeve of mine, but it is also one of the most commonly made errors in web page design. JPEG is for *photographs*, dammit, not text or line art.
