I liked to the purchase page - here's their homepage - http://www.jpegmini.com

It's a JPG file compression for Mac and PC. You could use it to save hard drive space, or make uploads to the cloud faster (my main use)

I'm a photographer and needed to find something to shrink my file sizes. This software looks really solid and gets great reviews.

It's US$149 normally, but I found this coupon which is working still even though it appears it should have expired.

There's a trial on their site and links to lots of reviews by photographers or you can do a test by uploading an image.

I've done my own test and at 100% can see only about a 2-3% loss of quality while images are about 40% smaller.

    What's the point of this? Pretty much any photo program worth its salt let's you select JPEG compression level. Also on the Mac, Preview lets you export and compress.

    LOL WTF
    A JPG file compression program?
    Most photo editing apps let you do this free.

    I can't imagine people pay for this kind of software…

    A free tool I love is http://www.irfanview.com/
    - can convert to/from most image types
    - can optimize most image types (including lossless or you can pick the quality/size reduction level you need)
    - the Thumbnails thing allows you to run batch conversions on as many files as you want
    + thousands of other features

    Reliable, free and feature rich.

      Another plug for IrfanView.
      I've been using it since 1996. So many useful features but never feels bloated.

    Oh, they have a Server product too… $199/month… This means ImageMagick saved me thousands of $…

    These sort of sites and apps are the reason I have to sit at my parents' computer for so long when I go home for the weekend.

    Pied Piper is lossless.

    I haven't tried any others - I just read around on several sites I respect (fstopper, petapixel etc) for something that's built into lightroom. I'm busy and need to find a solution for a busy season coming up. Cloud solutions aren't for me, and I don't want to manually do it either - I need fast a good - cheap is a bonus : )

      free is even better though

      Lightroom has a JPEG quality option.

    • cpho on 14/10/2015 - 11:52

      Have you looked at the FastStone suite?
      It might cover what you're after, and for free too

    Can't believe it, I do this on Mac no added programs

    Open a jpg image in paint. Mark a tiny dot or something to make a change. Click save. A 5mb image will be saved as 3.5mb image.

    Jeez… Lots of neg votes flying around, even on my own comment explaining my use for it. I'm not sure how to remove the post, but obviously it needs to go… I made fellow photographers mad! haha.

      not fellow photographers, just people with common sense

    Must have compressed your brain too if you really think this is a deal. :)

    Spend the money on any number of photo editing products or even use free tools…

  • Elijha on 14/10/2015 - 13:50

    Storage is cheap. Especially for a business - If long term is an issue (powering platters for years) why not look into tape drives or optical.
    Considering you might want to zoom in or crop or print a very large version of the file why compress at all and accept quality loss. If you want to have compression how about a lossless format like PNG?

  • Lenneth on 14/10/2015 - 14:18

    This must be a joke post. Nobody in their right mind would pay for a jpg compressor. And I would be surprised if your camera doesn't have the option to save in jpg already. -_-
