Optimizing Color in Images

Thursday, October 9, 2003 by messybuu | Discussion: Skinning

I used to manually optimize the colors in images, but that's a long and tedious process. I've heard of batch converting, and although I can do it with IrfanView and PSP7, it does not do it well enough, since it changes the colors, including transparent pink. Is there a batch converter out there that anybody's using that can lower the color resolution on images and use an optimized octree palette? If so, can you tell me the name of it?

You could set up a script to do what you want, with PSP 8.

Really? Hmm... I wasn't planning to purchase PSP8, but since I'm impulsive, I think I might reconsider. Would you say it's worth the investment of 50 dollars?

Yes, and then some. I would cry if I had to go back to 7. It does have it's quirks right now, but nothing I can't deal with. And they are beta testing 8.10. That should be out later this fall.
