This is great Derek, thank you. You know your other training from yesterday which was also very useful, do we need both of them? I'm a bit confused by the difference between "optimising" and "reducing the size" of images...

Hi Ray,
Good question
Image optimising reducing the file size.i.e from 640kb to 200kb (as an example)
Image resizing reducing the physical size of the image from 640 x 480 to 427 x 327 (as an example)
Thanks for asking.

Thanks Derek,
So sounds like it's good to use both plugin (?), first you reduce the physical size of the image, inevitably reducing the file size...then reduce the size even more by "optimizing" I guess? Thanks again, I'll try it!

You could get away with using just IMsanity but it's ability to compress is nowhere as near as good as short pixel.
