Map filesize

RE:Map size; the following site will cut the size of map images by about 2/3: https://compresspng.com/

This should allow a much larger range of map files to be uploaded since pre-compressed sizes of about 3MB should compress down under the 1MB limit. I tested this with LEVEL_01 and got an output size of around 300KB.. -Levellass (talk) 07:44, 11 May 2019 (UTC)

Yeah, but it converts it from 24 bit to 8 bit PNG and that looks awful. For example level 04. -Roobar (talk) 17 May 2019 (UTC)

Possibly then OptiPNG might work, it's less aggressive with compression, which will improve quality, but also runs into the filesize issue more easily. -Levellass (talk) 09:30, 18 May 2019 (UTC)

What is the maximum image size that the wiki accepts? -- Nisaba (talk) 11:45, 21 May 2019 (UTC)

From what I can tell from my (little) experimentation, exactly 1.00Mb (1024 bytes.) However this was before the whole big reorganization thing with tables and stuff so it might be different now. -Levellass (talk) 11:35, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

Can someone send me the raw level images, plz? I'm gonna try some compressing algorithms + reducing unneeded exif data and stuff. Maybe I can find a fitting workaround... -- Nisaba (talk) 07:15, 23 May 2019 (UTC)
