Since you're continuing to upload huge PNGs, and you went back to delete small PNGs with larger ones, I have removed your editing privileges.
Please read the wiki page on how to shrink PNG files.
Also, please try to name the file after the movie number to prevent possible naming conflicts.
Lastly, when looking at changes, you need to give time for the site to refresh caches (5 min), as well as possible force refresh pages if your browser is caching them to see what other people are doing.

How is it going, Kurabupengin?
I admit, I totally forgot about optimizing PNGs with all that JPEG stuff!

Thanks, I'm fine really! I haven't updated anything lately, cuz I just reTASed a game, and I haven't seen much screenshots that need an update quick... except for 2 GBA games: Dragon Ball - Advanced Adventure and Snood.
But right after that, there's no games I can update, specially PSX ones. But I'm fine, thatnk you for asking.
The new ones look like a big improvement to me. Good work.
You might want the opinion of someone experienced with PNG file sizes before the current ones are replaced, though.
The new images are actually smaller than the old ones :P
(Except for Mr. Nutz, somehow)
THE NEW MrNutz SCREENSHOT IS 1 BYTE SMALLER!!!!!!!!!!

Depending on the contents of the image, even PNG optimizers might not reduce the amount of colors to 256 (or less). If the optimizer is not doing that, it has to be done manually before running the optimizer.
A 256-color PNG will usually take significantly less space than a full-color one, even if the content is the same.
I'm going to update Dragon Ball Advanced Adventure, but I don't know where to get the emu used for it. Can someone pls send me a link to the VBA version of the movie?
An extra request: in the meantime, can somebody, SOMEBODY PLEASE MAKE AN HD ENCODE OF THE TAS PLEASE??? Thank you!
Oh! Have you also made an Archive.org item with those (excluding HD)? I want to take a look.

I have not; I'm unsure what to do with them considering I can't upload to the speed runs collection :/
I'll upload all three encodes to dropbox for now

This is the list of all VBA builds available. The movie will probably sync on VBA23.6, but if not, it might work on an older version (v17 is the oldest there).

No problem, just make a Community Video (or whatever is default) collection. Refer to the Publication Manual for filenames.

You're going to keep making such encodes, right? Hint: Encoder rank.
