Personnel

gollark: And maybe add some error correction code.
gollark: I would personally drop the alpha channel, run it through zstandard or something for bigger files, reduce it to maybe 2 bits per color channel, and add some reference areas so a scanner knows the maximum color.
gollark: Oh, and your screen cannot actually display the alpha channel.
gollark: You'll probably need to drop the information density substantially if you want that to actually be scannable.
gollark: To be fair, the Android one is generally bad.
