The zip is 3.8 MB...he said "When I extract the compressed file of rc1, it told me the size of 13 MB???" ... which it is.

Well, take a look at all the files included. :thumbsup:

Yup... ;) The size doesn't bother me personally...FileZilla just gobbles em up and uploads to my site fairly quick. :)

I'd like to see the download file in different compressions. For Example, my rar'ed version of 2.2rc1 is only 2 MB big. BZ2 and others could probably improve this even more.

3mb, is about 40 seconds on a decent connection.. And if you're still on dial up, then you deserve all you get.

:P :lol:

As part of our new build and deploy system, Brandon and I went through and removed a load of deprecated files and folders which has shaved around 700k of the zip size.

but there are still a lot of unused images in the style_images/1/ directory. most notably: t_moved.gif

others i think are out of the ipb game are:-

logobg.gif
nophoto.gif
qr_close.gif
qr_down.gif

the folder: folder_rte_images seems to be depreciated too.

i know there are more, but am too lazy to list 'em all :D

I created a bug once with them all. It was ignored

The images will be cleared when we redo the skin.
