    Hi,
    Is there an image optimiser plugin you would recommend to work with GD?
    Cheers

    Hi,

    most image optimizer that I know work with the media library and we bypass it, because it creates a post (attchement) for every image uploaded and every thumb created too.

    You would have optimized images, but a much heavier database.

    At the moment the only solution is to limit the file size you let users upload, so that if they try to upload a big image, it won’t be accepted.

    Thanks

    Not a problem – Have limited upload size and give instructions to anyone joining the directory so hopefully shouldn’t be a big issue. Just making sure there’s nothing else I can do to keep site in order.
    Many thanks
