Mac OSX
Macs and image editing go hand in hand. A couple of the tools I really like are listed here.
Shrink O matic
What I like about this software is it’s very fast and easy to use. You can do things like a straight optimize, rotating and size adjustment. It also supports mass renaming.
The Awesome: Free. Great tool that works fast and consistently. Simple.
Not so Awesome: You have to be careful with quality settings, it can get bad very quickly and you may overwrite your originals.
ImageOptim
This one is super easy to use, and great for shaving down size.
The Awesome: Free, dead simple and really fast. Does what it’s designed to do.
XNConvert
This is a very powerful program that’s really good for fine tuning your images. It’s full of options, everything from changing quality to colors, stripping metadata, adding watermarks and more. Huge feature list to this application and it’s hard to believe it’s free.
The Awesome: It’s free, and incredibly powerful. More than just image optimization.
Not so Awesome: Can be a bit overwhelming if you don’t know what you’re doing, and there are tons of options that can be confusing. Don’t let it stop you from using it though.

iResize
This is a great tool for doing batch operations on images, it’s extremely powerful and gives you tons of options for converting, resizing and quality adjustments.
The Awesome: Free, and really nice toolset.
Not so Awesome Interface is a little clunky, and I’ve never been a fan of separated windows. Still great software though.
Windows Software
There are still a lot of good options for Windows developers too. Here are a couple great ones:
RIOT
This is a great tool because it’s so simple, plus you can visually see what changes are being made. It’s really good for finding that perfect balance of quality and file size.
The Awesome: It’s just a great free package that’s simple to use, yet powerful.
PNG Gauntlet
For those times when you simply must use those giant PNGs, this tool is really good for sizing them down. It’s really easy to use and pretty powerful too.
The Awesome: Free, easy to use and manages to wrangle giant PNGs down to a reasonable size without losing quality.

Linux Software
The Gimp
This old die hard has been around for years. More of an image editing program, but you can use it to reduce and optimize your file size too, plus it’s fully scriptable.
The Awesome: It’s an extremely powerful program that’s 100% free and community supported.
XNConvert (again)
I just thought I’d give an honorable mention to XNConvert once again. They have a version of the software that runs in OSX, Windows and Linux. And since hardly anyone likes to port stuff to Linux I’m mentioning it again. The Linux version works just as great, and has just as many features.
The Awesome: Everything I mentioned before, in a fast Linux client.
Jpegoptim
(No Screenshot available)
This is an executable you run from the prompt, which you may be comfortable with in Linux anyway. It uses lossless optimization with tons of features. Plus it’s scriptable in BASH, Python or whatever you choose. Can definitely be used for large projects or automated optimization.
The Awesome: Lean and mean, and highly customizable and scriptable.
Online Image Optimizers
Of course with online optimizers you don’t need to worry as much about your operating environment. These also work very well, so long as you don’t have a lot of images to work with and have an internet connection.
