Hello,
ive been looking around the net for ages just to find easy to implemen
code to reduce the size of my bitmap drawing. I am making a bitmap an
capture a signature onto that bitmap. Then i want to save it. Tha
works but the file is too large (80kb) to send over gprs (it will b
used frequently).
First i looked for a way to save it as JPEG, but found nothing decent.
Second i tried to save it as monochrome bitmap (only two colors ar
needed).
Third: Maybe compression techniques like zip?
Nothing worked!
Does anyone have any experience with this?

I zip mine using the ZIP library from Resco, I also use their signature
control :-)

80k doesn't seem overly large...well, not to me. Have you tried
compression? I've had pretty good results in the past when compressing
bitmaps.

I just found a solution!
I zip the images with the SHARPZIPLIB (free) to about 1.5 KB!
Then i send that as a filestream to my webservice, that unzips it an
puts it in the GIF format (works on the normal .net framework, not o
cf).
So thats it!
Thanks for all your help
