I would like to prepare my PNGs for better optimization, so I can get the best image quality (if possible, lossless) and the smallest size.
From what I understand, I should use: PNG, 72 dpi, RGB, but what else?
Here's what we find in the iPhone HIG:
Note: * The standard bit depth for icons and images is 24 bits (8 bits each for red, green, and blue) plus an 8-bit alpha channel. The PNG format is recommended because it preserves the color depth and supports the embedded alpha channel.
I assume this means that we have to save the image as PNG 24 and create them in 8 bit mode? But I also read about 32 bits for better quality?
The rotation scheme (the witch adds the file size) allows PNG to be displayed faster. Does this apply to the iPhone?
Thank.
