What do you need to do? Open, save and edit webp pictures directly in aseprite. How would you like to do it? Without having to convert my pictures/textures between png and webp.

As possible succesor to png and gif, webp seems to be promissing. It supports lossy and lossless compression and has support for animation.

further information: https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebP And there is also a possibility, that it will be supporting layers in the future: https://groups.google.com/a/webmproject.org/d/msg/webp-discuss/1NzCJLCpscs/53iJwtpv6vYJ
