I’m not sure this is the right forum, but Photoshop is where I encountered this issue.
I’m working on the project where I need several screenshots of a web application. Taking the screenshots as pngs, I then sized them down in Photoshop. I was surprised to see that this essentially doubled their file size. This apparently has something to do with resampling the image, because using "Nearest Neighbor" over "Bicubic" decreases the file size, but ends up with a crappy result.
Is there anything else I can do in Photoshop to size down screenshots, still keep good quality and not increase (and hopefully reduce) the file size? If not, does anyone know of other tools or screen capture software that would help me with this issue?
