He's not the messiah. Really. [10 Aug 2004|03:42pm] [ music | Bob Dylan - Like a Rolling Stone ] After having the username thedeadparrot for way too long, I feel bad about having not made that many Monty Python.

There are actually no music icons in this post. Shocking! [06 Aug 2004|03:35pm] [ music | Gorillaz - 5/4 ] No music icons this time, alas.

TUTORIAL: Using OptiPNG [03 Aug 2004|04:48pm] This is primarily for iconmakers who use PNGs. Photoshop is bad at optimizing PNGs. Trust me when I say this. OptiPNG - it's a free optimization tool that losslessly compresses the size of PNG files. It's main downfall is that it's techy (command line based and on Macs, you have to compile the source code yourself). Otherwise, it can take up to 30% off your filesizes, which would help with bandwidth problems and download times. ( A tutorial for Windows ) I'll try to figure out the best way to compile the source code for Macs later. Comments, questions, suggestions, screaming cries for help are all welcome. 6 comments|post comment
