Compress PNG to 50KB (Quick Guide)
Palette reduction + optional downscale help PNGs approach 50 KB—everything runs locally.
1) Core idea
Reduce colors to a compact palette and, if needed, slightly resize while preserving transparency.
2) Flow
- Upload your PNG.
- Auto‑compress quantizes colors to target ~50 KB.
- Downscale lightly if still above target.
- Download as PNG (alpha kept).
3) Sanity checks
- Logos/UI art compress best; photo‑like PNGs compress poorly vs JPG/WebP.
- Alpha is preserved throughout.
4) Shortcuts
- Limit colors in the source file.
- Resize longest side to ~900–1400 px to reach 50 KB reliably.
5) Pitfalls
- Heavy photographs as PNG often exceed 50 KB—use JPG compressor.
- Too few colors can band gradients; increase palette slightly if needed.
6) Micro examples
- Logo 1200×400, flat colors → often 25–55 KB.
- UI screenshot 1366×768 → may need small resize to hit 50 KB.
7) Mini FAQ
- Transparency? Preserved.
- Local? Yes—no uploads.
- Output? PNG.
8) Action tip
If a photo‑like PNG won’t reach 50 KB, try exporting as JPEG on a JPG compressor page.
