Do PNG files reduce in size over time?

  Not by themselves, but maybe they didn't use an optimiser before. Or used a far better optimiser now. Or tweaked the logo, and now it's more amenable.to optimisation.

    The author says in the post that it's a 20x20 image. That's only 400 pixels, and 4 bytes per pixel (RGBA) would only make it 1600 bytes with no compression at all.

      Then that's quite some impressive, uh, decompression.

  I don't know, but if they do, they seem to have a half-life of about 2.431184 years. That's interesting news.
