New topics to be included in this workshop will be Flash (.swf) file optimization, 32-bit .png optimization, and techniques associated with optimizing video footage. We will also discuss and illustrate the benefits of image optimization as it relates to software and GUI design as well, working to make the applications on one's computer(s) run faster while requiring less hard drive space to store.
