When I say smidgeon, I mean that I’d have a hard time telling which is which if you shuffled them and asked me to pick out the compressed versus the original. The compressed image was a smidgeon less shiny. When running the test, I set the compression amount to 65% and to my naked human eye, I could barely tell the difference between the original and the much lighter compressed version.


The maximum file size you can upload is 9 Mb = 9000 KB, which is well above and beyond our two example images. It has a few other useful features, including the fact that it allows you to choose the degree to which you’d like to compress your uploaded image. Compress Now is an excellent image optimizer tool that allows you to compress three of the most common image file types: JPG, GIF, and PNG.
