I just found about this cool functionality https://youtu.be/8pQw33oUJEA

This is very cool idea, but too generic. Can't optimize .pngs event though can use pngquant as a background process. You have to corehack generatorCore to allow optimization. But if You put a gulp watch on it's output folder It can save a lot of time.

In most case I need hi-quality double-sized images with dimensions with even numbers, divisible by two. In that case I cant use automated process.

@Web Dizajner You can use masks to create the correct even numbered shape, and then use 200% as a prefix to get the double-sized.

 

@Oliver16Years  Using ".png8" as a file extension will spit out pngquant optimised files.

No, sadly no. Png8 is switching to 8 bit .png but it is not optimized. It is 100% pngquant quality.

Lets say generator is producing 20k png8s with pngquant. But if You hack/patch whatever the source code, you can set the desired quality and the output can be 10k. Adobe just left the pngquant process call with default settings. I am just working on my banner engine and migrating to generator from superPng.

Here You can see the difference in file sizes from 0% to 100% pngquant qualities:
