a few options:pngcrush is a somewhat fiddly to use command-line only png compressor that makes crazy small lossless files
if you use photoshop - the SuperPNG plugin makes reasonably small png files.
some other image editors/converters have compression features.
Generally though, png files are not all that small. So the next option is to reduce the resolution of the image.

HmmBeen looking at PNGcrush, and looks fiddly. I use Fireworks not photoshop (with a side of illustrator) as that's what I know, normally I .gif my images fine but want to play with things appearing/disappearing on the board.

IrfanView has a plugin for compressing PNGsHowever it's not amazing. I saved your GIF as PNG with transparent background and it somes out as about 50k using the default settings, 18k with the PNGOUT plugin. I had a white background in IrfanView when I saved it.
