Subject: Re: Huffman and images

My guess (which is as good as or worse than yours) is that the code table is taking up more space than the compression is saving, although I have a hard time imagining how much larger such an arrangement would yield.

Perhaps the image has very few duplications (a gradient?) of bits and is ill-suited for compression?

Just a shot in the dark. *bang*
