Thanks!
According .2 - Imgur does state that, but how it is in reality? There s similar discussion there. I don't think removing EXIF would free 300KB from 700KB jpeg. And I do not think there is such a nice loseless optimization algorithm for jpeg. Well I can just use PNG at the very least. If compression is an option where can I disable it? (or is it impossible with free account?)

P.S. Chi-, I forgot 's' in the title, fail =__="
