How do I lower the KB size of a PNG file without loosing to much quality?
I've been trying now for a bit, and still cant find out how.

All help appreciated, and will pay for good answers.

save in .GIF
then put the .GIF version on the .png
and erase edge of the .GIF layer (if its popout or transparent w/e u call it)
Then save in .PNG

Yes, you can use the Posterize method which allows you to save it as a PNG and maintain the quality rather than sizing it down or saving it as a gif. You can PM me if you need a better explanation; I'll tell you how to do it.

between the techniques for optimizing and the online optimizer you should be able to get most stuff under the limit unless its way over.
