    This is not CI related, but being into development I think it should be of some interest for somebody.

    I’m working as a web designer for years, and still find every now and then something that make me think
    “Wow, how they did that?”.
    I run into the 31three website (some people here seem to know it well),
    and I had a look at the picture’s file size (FF - Web Developer component - Image information).

    Well, just to make an example, you find a photographic picture 331x806px, full colour jpeg, great image quality,
    in just 989 bytes (!)
    No way I can reproduce the file size in photoshop, even at highest compression level and lower quality.

    What am I missing?
    Glad if anyone can give me a hint…

    Thanks all,
    Andrea

    No. The buttefly image is 24,848 bytes and not 989 bytes.

    True, Huan.
    I don’t understand why Firefox says it’s just 989 bytes…

    I was believing in Santa Klaus
