CODE EXAMPLE FOR PYTHON

Optimize images in python using pillow

>>> from PIL import Image
 # My image is a 200x374 jpeg that is 102kb large
 >>> foo = Image.open("path	oimage.jpg")
 >>> foo.size
  (200,374)
 # I downsize the image with an ANTIALIAS filter (gives the highest quality)
 >>> foo = foo.resize((160,300),Image.ANTIALIAS)
 >>> foo.save("path	osaveimage_scaled.jpg",quality=95)
 # The saved downsized image size is 24.8kb
 >>> foo.save("path	osaveimage_scaled_opt.jpg",optimize=True,quality=95)
 # The saved downsized image size is 22.9kb
