Mhondoz,

Actually, because they are 8-bit .bmp, not 24-bit true color, they reasonable size .. 1024x1024 is 1026kb .. same .png is 457kb though .. don't quite see how you got a 75%+ reduction .. should be 45% or so

My unmodded 4.09m is 5.20GB .. 1.78GB in skins
My modded 4.09b1 is 10.2GB .... 1.71GB in skins

It's not a bad idea to go with .png, but unless you have alot of custom skins in .. saving some 800MB by my calculations

then I suppose, everyone would need to convert ?
