Republish iWeb 1.0 sites to reduce image load times

Use PNGOUT tool! (there is version for OS X as well)

It's little slow, but optimizes PNGs very, very well (better than optipng, pngcrush).

You can use pngquant as well to convert 24bit PNGs to 8bit, while preserving full alpha transparency (neither Photoshop nor GIMP can do that!).

Oh, and there is jpegoptim as well...

All above are open-source free command-line tools.

Beware of PNG and IE

Hmm...

Have a look at my site www.iainbroughton.com and the logo in the centre on the front page.

On decent browsers it has a transparent background. In IE (Version 6.0 XP Home SP2) it displays as having a white background.
