# while this outwardly looks like an awesome idea
my shoes tend to last about three months tops. six if they're doc martens

but after they break i could use the technology to build a robot which goes to the corner shop and buys me beer. perhaps it's a good idea after all

# just as a side note.....
How do you keep your quality but make the file size so small? Im on PShop and save as a small 40kb ish file and it always looks shite.

# I use photoshops save for the web feature

PShop (are you talking about Paintshop Pro?)
Export - Jepg Optimizer
which has several settings you can change to make it Web friendly. (Web safe Palette)
and compression to make the image smaller

# I don't know the technicalities, but it seems to me that...
The two commonest ways to compress an image are:
  - downsample: ie. reduce number of pixels;
  - more lossy: ie. reduce JPEG quality.

I'm amazed at how good JPEG compression is, even at its worst setting. If you reduce the pixel count and use a moderate JPEG compression it will look rough, whereas keeping a high pixel count and using extreme JPEG compression seems to do a better job.

I just use "Resize Image" and the "Quality" slider when saving as a .jpg. You can tell I don't have Photoshop...
