I have an image and was trying to optimize it as a png. I see that it doesnt have many colors but no matter what I try I cant get it smaller.
Any ideas what in particular makes this file so large

I tried smushit.com as well as some local png compression tools and I am stumped
This image has quite a busy texture to it, even though the number of colors is small; the original size is legitimate. If you reduce the number of colors even further, you can make it tiny but you will lose some detail; with an image this subtle, the detail loss may be acceptable. Using Paint Shop Pro I am able to reduce to 16 colors with the Octree method and get it down to 214 bytes.
