Since the Sanyo phones seem to only want to accept images less than 16K
in size, I am looking for ways to reduce the byte size of PNG images.
When I import an image from a file, BitPim, in resizing the image, often
makes a file larger than 16K. If I use xv to convert this resized file
to an 8 bit format like BMP or GIF, and then import that file, I usually
get well under 16K in file size.
I have tried copying the image to a bitmap and back to png with wxBitmap
(with an 8 bit color depth) and wxImage, but I don't really know what I
am doing am and looking for suggestions. There are some routines that
seem like they ought to take a depth=8 argument, but they don't.
