can anyone get this to work?:

http://www.smush.it/

it’s an image optimiser. you give it the url of an address, and, apparently, it optimises it – presumably is supposed to serve up an optimised version of it. but for me whatever image url i give it i get a ws.php file containing
{“error”:“Need an ?img=”,“id”:null}
back.

am i being thick or is it broken?

thanks.

Works for me:

  1. I right-clicked an image on my site
  2. from the dropdown list I selected “Copy image URL”
  3. pasted the URL of the picture

and it worked as you can see from the enclosed partial screen dump.

The cat image picture on their site.

The cat image was nicked from my site.
