Ovenman Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I need to know whether or not I can reduce image file sizes - for free? I made them using Paint.Net (obviously) and wanted to put them onto Bebo to make a custom background, turns out they're too big. I've searched but couldn't find an answer. Any suggestions?

Crazy Man Dan Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 If you're using JPG, you could lower the Quality slider when you save it. If you're using PNG, there are many cleaners out there (PNGOut, OptiPNG, et cetera) that will remove extraneous data from the final file. Google.

I Like Pi Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 PNG is also compressed. Some software can optimize JPEGs losslessly for a little extra space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
