   I think there should be an option to disallow compression of certain filetypes, such as .gif – that way rather than deactivating the plugin, you can upload a gif file without loosing the frames due to compression.

      I believed all GIFs should be ran through this, as the majority of GIFs are static gifs, rather than animated GIFs. However, we do have a temporary disable option under Media -> Image Compressor for temporarily disabling the compressor.

   I installed WordPress Image Compressor. It works smoothly with all type of photographs. But there’s one problem. As soon as the plugin is acitivated, the upload of pdf-files is not working any more. It is possible to upload pdf-files, but they are “converted” into jpg-files and the respective files do obviously become useless.

      This issue has been fixed in version 0.3.

   What if I wanted a transparent background on a single image, but not on the rest? JPG doesnt support transparent backgrounds. Just wondering =)

      You’d go to media -> Image Compressor, and temporarily turn it off.

   Hi,

   this plugin will convert all images to max width that I set?

   Eve if they are smaller than that width?

   I just want to convert images higher than the max width I set, is this possible?

   Thnks

      I don’t believe it will convert smaller images, so it should work just fine.
