A JPG-LARGE file is a JPEG image created by Google Chrome when downloading a large image from Twitter. It is in the JPEG format with a custom .jpg-large extension. To open in a viewer, change .jpg-large to .jpg. This enables programs to recognize it as a standard JPEG image.
Twitter hosts images uploaded by users on its media server. This allows the images to be viewed by that user and other Twitter users. Images are resized to match required dimensions of social networks.
The jpg-large extension comes from the image URL on Twitter. For example: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BBoix8aCAAAl9mK.jpg:large. To view the file, simply rename the extension to .jpg or .jpeg. Then any JPEG viewer can open it.
The jpg-large file is just a standard JPEG image. Any software that works with JPEGs can also open these files. Google Chrome handles website image URLs this way when downloading pictures.
