Optimize source photos and compress PNG graphics losslessly

[silveltman]

Converts 1 existing source photographs to actual WebP quality 90, with a maximum of 3840px on the longest edge, correct orientation, preserved aspect ratio and no upscaling. Already compliant WebP photographs are unchanged. Photo format is checked from decoded bytes, including PNG photographs with misleading .jpg or .webp extensions. Graphics, screenshots and animations retain suitable formats. Literal references are updated when files are renamed.

Changed source files: 0.33 MB to 0.18 MB, saving 0.15 MB. Git history and original working copies retain the originals; this does not immediately reclaim that much local disk space.

Validation: every converted output decodes as WebP with the recorded dimensions and within the 3840px ceiling; removed filenames and literal references checked; diff whitespace check passed. The latest-commit Check workflow passed. The latest-commit changed-page preview was checked in headless Chrome at 1280px and 412px widths, with no failed loaded image elements. This is a page spot check, not a complete crawl or an actual iPhone test.

Latest-commit Deploy Preview. Verified commit: b1b6c78d041fb06b47e4048795cbdc2698535ba7.

No production changes have been made. No dependency upgrades, hosting/access repairs or Git-history cleanup are included.

Lossless PNG compression

1 PNG assets: 393,148 to 361,364 bytes. Oxipng rewrites compression only. Every changed file was decoded before and after and verified byte-for-byte equal, including alpha. Dimensions, bit depth and rendering metadata (including ICC profiles) are preserved. No lossy quality reduction or format conversion.

Latest commit 9ecbd4c18238efb03eb672c87ecbcf9d7ef9b73f: native Check workflow passed. Exact latest-commit Netlify preview. Native Netlify build passed. One changed page checked at 1280 and 412 pixels with no broken loaded images. This is a spot check, not coverage of every page or lazy image.

Release validation · 6 October 2026

Sil explicitly authorized this merge. Source head 9ecbd4c18238efb03eb672c87ecbcf9d7ef9b73f was reviewed against actual main 0ef8f432de37ff1b124f39e42ba41c67b3dd64d8 in an isolated synthetic integration. Frozen install, pnpm check and pnpm build passed. The CodeRabbit CLI checkpoint completed with zero findings; binary assets excluded by that reviewer were decoded and checked separately. PNG raw pixels remained identical, WebP outputs decode correctly and respect the 3840-pixel source ceiling. Existing GitHub and Netlify checks passed and no unresolved review threads remained.

Squash merge a5241595e3b155403b908e34eab74d1cf6a8d23f has tree bb25b162679eb8bedbf70409c740a9e006f1c96b, identical to the locally validated integration. Netlify production deploy 6ac5097f3dce2c0008353141 is ready and published for that exact merge commit. Mobile and desktop browser checks passed with no broken loaded images or horizontal overflow. This is spot coverage, not a complete crawl or physical iPhone test.
