I'm using an ancient, unregistered shareware copy of Paint Shop Pro 4. That 30 day trial is lasting a lot longer than they anticipated =P
MSPaint. The one that doesn't save into PNG.
That only depends on how many colors you're using. If you use less than 256 colors (note: scanned drawings eat up a lot of space in PNG format because there's WELL more than that), they'll be smaller than GIF files of the same size. The less you use, the more space you save.MSPaint can save in PNG, it just does a bad job at compressing the image, so it ends up having a much larger filesize than necessary. If you still want to save PNG with MSPaint, you should probably use a program like OptiPNG to bring them down in size.

So what other information could be in the file?
I think you can find a copy of mspaint.exe on the web.I'm using the MSPaint from my old windows 98 because a virus nuked my XP copy. It doesn't save in PNG. I'm just too lazy to use a different program.
