Viewing Image compression bug

Image compression bug



User: Boris K. 10 years ago
Hi Paul,

I found a strange bug today.
I was looking today on how to optimize my site.
One of the things was the background image which was 370kb, I have compressed it in photoshop to 270kb without any noticeable quality loss.
So far so goed, when I open this image in roddy's background slider widget Everweb asks if you want to compress this image, so I said yes. But instead of compressing this image it became 570kb so it got bigger.
After this i tried to add this picture again, and selected add as high-resolution and then It added the original file size from 270kb.

So I'm having my doubts about that question why it asks if I want to compress the image if it only becomes bigger?

What is the result if you do not compress the image when asked?

When you have choice, try them all.

Best option is to ignore the warning.

It's not possible to ignore it, there are 3 options, compress, add as high-quality image and add to external files?

Great, you have two options left instead of one.

Well, what are you waiting for?
