you klnow my work for http://www.besly.de. I create for this knowledge base
many screenshots and app shots, if you need some help let me know. If you
want to make the screens smaler as you can do under BeOS,Haiku and Zeta, use
Corel Draw and reduce the value of colors, convert it into gif and then use
ACDSee to convert it into png.
Thanks for the offer and the tip.
I just tried with one of the bigger images (44kb) with Gimp and achieved a 15% reduction
by using an indexed palette of 128 colors. Many of our images are smaller than that and
would probably give less reduction in filesize. The biggest images are using many colours
in depicting gradients and photos. You can't reduce the colours and have it still look
good. Also, it takes time having a hard look that the quality doesn't suffer.
I'm not sure it's worth the effort, but if you can script that thing it might be worth
when we only have to compare the quality of the results to the originals.

Humdinger
