Optimizes PNG by making them smaller, yet without losing picture quality. Having lots of PNG pictures, I obviously fell in love with this program. It's very safe, and I hadn't heard anyone losing pictures with this tool (and there's a parameter to keep the orginal pictures if you're paranoid).

There's this one frontend for it, with obviously Engrish on it's webpage. I would advise against using it, as the commandline utility is simple enough (unless you for some reason lost, is very illiterate or broke your keyboard).

For anyone nerdy enough, comparing backup files with the optimized pictures. It didn't backup a few files due to my own mistakes, but intresting that I shaved off 25% in average.
