Hello,
First of all, pardon my English, I'll try my best to make it clear.
I've been spending a lot of hours the last few days to reupload Super NES Boxes (fronts and backs), why ?
Because most of them are between 1,5mo and 5mo, sometimes even more...I thought that was way too much space wasted (I haven't checked other systems yet but I bet there will be more of those) so I tried to recompress them and for the exact same quality and size, I get images between 300ko and 800ko, that's a lot of gained space (or rather a lot of space wasted for everyone at the moment if we don't do anything about it).
Let's say you have 1000 SNES games, that's easily 3go wasted, only for the SNES and for the boxes (if you count 1 front and 1 back, but there are usually more with the different regions).
So here is my (noob) question/suggestion : would it be possible to implement a kind of script that would recompress images when you upload them ?
