Hi everybody!
This isn't really a new plugin, just modified version from old OptiPNG file type plugin.
Switching old OptiPNG plugin is recommended because it uses outdated version of OptiPNG which contains security vulnerabilities.
Functionality is same and source based on I Like Pi's code, so most of the credit doesn't belong to me.

Downloads:

• Download Plugin:  OptiPNG plugin.ZIP   105.5K   1011 downloads
• Download Source: http://mir.cr/3EWYQMQS

Installation:

• Both the OptiPngFileType.dll and optipng.exe need to be in the FileTypes directory.

Changelog:

• October 7, 2011 - updated OptiPNG to 0.65, little reformatting to code and few changes to UI
• June 12, 2012 - updated OptiPNG to 0.7.1, and tiny changes to code

I don't really care how do you use modifications I made, but because original plugin is licensed under GPLv3 this plugin is also licensed under GNU General Public License (GPL) v3

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

I'm no expert in licenses (just ask pyro xD ), but that looks to me like you aren't supposed to be changing his plugin...

IMHO, though, the change is great and I definitely welcome it Thanks!

That quote just means you are not allowed to change the license text, you are free to change the code as long as you also release the source code with your modifications.

Normally when I make something with open source I release it to public domain if I can.

Originally I made this for private use but sharing is caring.
If you don't like it remove it and don't use it.
I don't lose anything.

Hooray for typing comments late at night xD my reading skills when tired on a scale of 1-10 is -1 lol.

Thank you for updating and thank you for sharing Mr X.

I found this thread from the original one:

Any chance you'd be willing to update OptiPNG to the newest version? (v0.7.1)

[Mr X]

Update!

[Broadway]

I saw on http://optipng.sourceforge.net/  that opting.exe 0.7.4 is the newest version.

I realized that it can be used with the dll provided in the first posting of this thread.

Or are there features missing when the dll is not updated?
