As an example I will try to reduce the size of an image using Microsoft Paint Windows and Paint.NET

reduce the size of an image using Microsoft Paint Windows and Paint.NET

Dimensions: 2576 × 1932 and the original image size is 1.24 MB

 

1. Reduce the Size of Image Using Microsoft Paint Windows

  • I try to open the image on Microsoft Paint Windows and resave it, and the result is image size increase to 1.3 MB.
  • I try to resize the image on Microsoft Paint Windows to 600 x 450 pixels and the result is image size decrease to 153 KB.

2. Reduce the Size of Image Using Paint.NET

  • I try to open the image on Paint.NET and resave it with the quality setting is 90, and the result is image size decrease to 1 MB.
  • I try to resize the image on Paint.NET to 600 x 450 pixels with the Resampling setting is Best Quality, and the result is image size decrease to 62 KB.

With these result I think you are agree with me, if Paint.net is better than Microsoft Paint Windows. So if you are webmaster and have a wallpaper sites, the Paint.NET is very useful to help you to reduce the size of images.
