| Fixture findings | Offers before/after preview and colour adjustment; distinguish nearby ad buttons from the real download. | Strong size reduction suits upload limits; gradients show banding and download ads need care. |
| Original historical observation | Optimizilla (imagecompressor.com) shines with its interactive Before/After comparison canvas and 'Colors: 224' fine-tuning slider, shrinking our 4.14 MB anchor by 57.64% to 1.75 MB at PSNR=38.98 dB; however, users must watch out for two green 'DOWNLOAD EXTENSION' fake download ad banners directly above and below the workspace (01_landing.png, 02_workspace.png). | 11zon offers a very handy dual-tab interface ('Slider' by % and 'Size' by target KB), shrinking our 4.14 MB PNG down to 842 KB (-79.65%) in 1.8s at its default 60% level; however, the aggressive palette cut causes visible gradient banding (PSNR=32.83 dB) and users must dodge 3 green 'DOWNLOAD EXTENSION' fake ad buttons (02_workspace.png). |
| Suitable uses · historical assessment | Users who want to manually fine-tune PNG palette color counts (2–256 colors) with a live Before/After preview—provided they avoid the fake 'DOWNLOAD EXTENSION' ad banners | Users facing strict government or academic portal upload limits (e.g., forcing a large PNG under 1 MB or an exact KB target) who can tolerate mild background gradient banding |
