Thank you a lot for the tool. I had no idea I could compress PNG so much, without loosing too much quality. I will be a heavy user of this.

  To clarify, I didn't make this site, just discovered it while googling how to accomplish this without Fireworks. The "beauty" of 8-bit png is how it degrades acceptably in IE8, IE7 and even IE6. Try comparing a large round icon in 1-bit alpha (ie. gif) vs 8-bit alpha, it's much much better.

    IE7 and IE8 can display 32bit (24bit for RGB + 8bit for alpha channel) PNGs fine by the way. IE6, of course, only supports alpha transparency on 8bit PNGs.

      IE6, of course, only supports alpha transparency on 8bit PNGs. IE6 does not support alpha transparency, in this case it treats colos with alpha component as fully transparent i.e. PNG8 with alpha transparency is treated as with index transparency.

        Yes, you're correct.
