Is there any way to optimize PNG files so the Flash filesize is smaller? I am using transparent PNG32 images rendered straight from Lightwave 3D for a lot of the site (buttons, characters, etc…). Right now at 65% JPG quality on export, my Flash site is already 180k and it only has a few small images in it so far (24 frames for the character movieclip that watches the cursor). My site will be fairly picture intensive since its my art portfolio site. Most of the pictures inside the Flash site will just be the thumbnails and the fullsized images will be popup windows outside Flash.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.
Here’s the site so far:
