 * Hi,

   the plugin. Mentioned it here.

 * > If you need help, I need proper information to help you.
    – I am giving the
   information that I have at the moment. I can provide more info if the developer
   needs.
 * > DO NOT hijack another thread, always start your own, even if you think you 
   are having the same problem as someone else.
    – Created a new thread.
 * > DO these three things:
    > 1. Upgrade to the latest version of the plugin. –
   Running the latest version. > 2. Be descriptive, include any error messages you
   see, and provide as much detail as possible. – Gave as much info I have in addition
   to a screenshot ([http://imgur.com/BOaMB8h](http://imgur.com/BOaMB8h)). > 3. 
   On the plugin Settings page, click the Debug link, and include >the Plugin Status
   and Debug info sections. – That I can do now, as that’s what devel needs.

 * @nosilver – ah I did not know you were the plugin author. First I must thank 
   you for this great plugin and making it open source/free software. I am digging
   the issue and if there is anything more I can do to fine the problem I would 
   love to.
 * Once again thanks for the plugin, keep up the great free software work 🙂

 * As mentioned in the ‘important: read before posting’, please turn on the debugging
   option and post the output on pastebin.com
    Also, please copy and paste the plugin
   status from the plugin settings page.

 * Do you have a debug.log file in the plugin folder (plugins/ewww-image-optimizer/)?
   If so, delete it, upload one image, then paste the contents of the debug.log 
   file on pastebin.com

 * Hmm, that all looks normal, nothing out of place that I can see.
 * 1. How large is the png file you are uploading?
    2. What level do you have optipng
   set to on the settings page?

 * Also, are you uploading to the media library, or a different plugin?
    Check your
   server logs for anything that shows up when you try to upload a new image. If
   you don’t know where those are, ask your webhost.
