NEED HELP! Trying to reduce large png image file size.

Greetings!

I'm currently attempting to reduce the file size of a png image.

I've tried looking up ways on how to reduce the file size and almost all tutorials show them changing the file format to png-8 and the image size.

However, I don't want to change the image size. I want to keep the same width and height (2732 pixels by 2732 pixels)

Currently my file before changes is about 6 mb but after applying some adjustments, I was able to get it down to 3 mb.

I need my image file size to be 1 mb or lower.

Please help. All answers are appreciated.

Thank you.

Have you tried with options like Color reduction method and number of colors, Dither to No Dither in File > Export > Save for Web?

Yes I have tried those options.

I got it down to 1.7 mb but i need it to be 1.0 mb or smaller.

I also tried saving it as is and reducing it with an online tool (tinypng.com)

 

This tool helps with reducing the file size but it's still not as small as I would like it to be.

Any other ideas?

 

Thank you for your input.
