Nice one. I made one adjustment to the backup file. Instead of adding original_ to the front, I left the base the same then added .bak after the extention. I like the new image and the original to be next to each other in my folder list. When Original was added to the front, they all went into the O secion of the file list.

 

What I would really like is something like this:

logo.png > logo.20130725.bak.png

 

Do you know how I might modify this to do that?

juggopop, try this:

- find that lines in the bin/bash script element:

base=$(basename "$input")
new=$(echo -n $base)

- replace with that:

base=$(basename "$input")
currentdate=$(date +"%Y%m%d")
name=$(basename "$base" .png)
new=$(echo -n $name.$currentdate.bak.png)

As some users already know, the new tinypng api requires an API key.

Until the next Benzi's update comes, you can do the following steps:

- get your unique API key here (the free one allows you to convert up to 500 png files per month): https://tinypng.com/developers

- edit the great Benzi's workflow, and in the bin/bash script element, find that line:

download=$(curl -s --data-binary "@$input" http://tinypng.org/api/shrink | grep -o "http[^\"]*")

.. and replace for that:

download=$(curl -s --user api:YOUR_UNIQUE_API_KEY_HERE --data-binary "@$input" https://api.tinypng.com/shrink | grep -o "http[^\"]*")

just save and use!

Hello @Benzi!

Your workflow is so great!

Unfortunately, in the last weeks it stopped to work.. think thats a problem with the API (it may be changed - https://tinypng.com/developers)

Thanks!
