And a simple frame screenshot with no information about bitrate or anything never really does justice to an encoder no matter what format it is in.
Of course, the choice is up to the site makers, so I'll leave it at that. I just wanted to state my opinion.

What if the difference is that one encode has an abundance of artifacts?
Also, one idea is have both jpeg AND png options. Some other site did that iirc.
