# Optimise it!
Also, PNG files are bobbins. Save it as a JPG instead.

# Put the hat on.
Custard squirts out of a hole in the top when I jam it down on your head.

It's comedy gold.

# nice
posts link to png version of the same file, with the same colour palette, 3k smaller.

pngs aren't bobbins. you just have to know how & where to use them

# Several posts have already been made
with links to an optimising tutorial.

Easiest way is to download the Gimp, which has an optimising function built in I believe.

And yes, that is fecking massive.

*edit* saving as a jpg would be a damn fine idea. Also it doesn't need to be as big in pixels either.

# it helps if we knew what program you were using
but failing that, try here, and its best to ask the question before posting, and ask it in an existing thread. This way, you don't get a new hole ripped by others for posting a 150k image on the board
