Strip useless files from images

I'd love to see an app that can strip the useless data from picture files once they have been completed and no longer need editing. I know of a great one for PNG files called PngOptimizer, but can't seem to find one for other image types. I know jpeg files are already compressed, but they can still contain useless data and can be made smaller. An open source tool to work with these other image formats would really be helpful. If you know of any, let me know.

For PNG's:

Name: PngOptimizer

Ghostzilla

I did search on this app, yet it wasn't talked about in the slew of other programs that were slapped with it (even though it was the first on the list). I looked into it. It's Freewear as far as i read. Mai Question is thus: Is it portable? and if not can someone please port it for me? I'd do it, but i have no clue how to port apps. Thank you in advance for any help towards this.

edit: this is the only valid link I could find:

Locate32 portable?

Submitted by datiswous on April 24, 2007 - 6:43am

I am using Locate32 at the moment for file searging and indexing. The program is in a zip file but uses the windows register for settings. You can download the Source code on the webpage.

I was wondering if anybody wants to make it portable.

p.s. Instead of giving lots of information about the software, you can better try it out yourself, or watch the movie:

Dia - the open source Visio alternative

Submitted by ftldelay on April 23, 2007 - 11:17pm

Open Office is here as a portable app, so why not include Dia and complete the package? I'm a fan of Visio, but due to it being way overpriced, I tried Dia recently and was able to recreate some very detailed IT diagrams. I'm definitely a fan now and think it would fit well with the other apps here. Thanks!
