That webp is 3270 x 2289. Turning it into a png bloats it to 3x its size, and an 80 quality jpg is twice as large as the webp.

Turning it into a png bloats it to 3x its size, and an 80 quality jpg is twice as large as the webp. yes my point is that perhaps there are other steps to be taken besides random conversions of an unnecessarily large picture also i don’t know if it is real resolution or some sort of screenshot since i don’t know where the original images are from

it looks like there are some grays mixed in with the black and white (for anti-aliasing), so png doesn't do as well as you'd hope. posterizing to black and white only and saving as png reduces by a bit more than half.

working with some web designers who, on their own website, have a grid of client logos that are all 3000x2000 full colour jpgs clocking in north of 3MB each, scaled down to 400x300 for display their site takes more than a minute to load on a 940mbit connection, and they don't appear to know why. they have asked me for ftp access to my client's hosting because they have some assets that are too large to upload via wordpress. i am seeing a pattern

git apologist posted:this is really common and i’ve been hailed a hero many times for just cropping and saving images appropriately and fixing peoples poo poo it bugs me in the sense that this is part of their job, to know and understand how images are stored and displayed on a web page, so that they can make the web page do that without it falling over. and they don't, and seemingly have never considered why their poo poo runs like garbage. and yeah, it's depressingly common with people in design fields do you need a 20 megapixel print resolution image for your team thumbnail? no, you do not. spend five loving seconds and think about the thing you are doing before doing it, or at least afterwards when it's clearly not working infernal machines fucked around with this message at 20:43 on Jul 25, 2023 |

"we were told SVGs were better for logos so we converted them all and it's still slow" can you guess what happened? if you guessed they ran every 3000x2000 png through the first "convert png to svg" website they found, which just embedded the original png as a base-64 string within an svg container, you would be correct.

I genuinely don't understand how that happens. Wranging webshit is literally their job. It's not my job to know image formats or how to make vector graphics; I'm a sysadmin. I make inscrutable things happen in the background. Why do I have to do their job? Why do I know their job? Why don't I replace them with a shell script?

our students broadly have a lot of trouble with the concepts of pixel dimensions and resolution/dpi. we don't expect them to know this stuff before they start training (although really? in 2023?), but we of course teach it in their first semester and reinforce it constantly. but they either ignore it, forget it, or never got it in the first place, because there are still some students in their fourth year who are submitting final comps with visible pixelation, or raw 20-megapixel scans of a single pencil doodle. i increasingly believe that there was a certain era (the time that most yosposters were growing up) in which using a personal computer meant knowing some key principles of how a computer works with data, and that era was a one-time thing. if your primary interaction with digital images has been through a smartphone and its built in photo editors, do you even see a pixel figure anywhere? all that stuff is hidden and abstracted now.

oh and last semester i got an illustrator file set up like this ok, yes, filled circle. very good. wait, what's that going on at the edge?  and there's a little glitch inside the perimeter too. well let's just take a look at that in outline mode and  no way, they couldn't possibly -- let's reduce the stroke weight a bit and
