About

Image Compressor Web App
A simple, client-side web application for compressing images using JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. This app allows users to upload an image, adjust the compression quality, and download the compressed version—all without requiring any server-side processing.

Features
*New Feature* Bulk Images downloader
Client-Side Compression: All image processing is done in the browser, keeping user data private and ensuring fast processing.
Real-Time Quality Adjustment: Adjust the compression quality with a slider to balance file size and image clarity.
Preview of Original and Compressed Images: See both the original and compressed images side-by-side to compare quality.
Download Option: Download the compressed image in JPEG or PNG format, depending on the original image's format.

How to Use
Upload an Image: Click the "Choose File" button and select an image from your device.
Adjust Quality: Use the quality slider to set the compression level (lower values increase compression but may reduce quality).
Download Compressed Image: Click the "Download Compressed Image" button to save the compressed version.

Compression Settings
The app uses a canvas element to handle image processing. You can control the compression quality with the slider:
PNG Images: Retain transparency and do not use quality settings (saved in lossless format).
JPEG Images: Use the quality setting to adjust compression, with values ranging from 0.1 (high compression) to 1.0 (low compression, higher quality).

Limitations
File Size and Resolution: Very large images may cause performance issues or fail to load due to browser memory limits.
Transparency: For images with transparency (e.g., PNGs), the app defaults to PNG format. However, converting these to JPEG will remove transparency, filling transparent areas with a white background.
