If the graphics app* you're using has a feature to convert to Indexed Color with Exact pallete, saving to .PNG or .GIF can make really small files of huge graphics.
Fer instance, I've been doing some texture maps for 3D models at a 2048x2048 pixels, in 2 colors. Saving to GIF with an exact pallet crunches the 12 megabyte image down to around 47-67 kilobytes with no loss of quality. More colors would of course increase that, but with the lossless compression on chart and graph type images with large areas of the same color, it wouldn't be much.
*Photoshop 7.01 and/or Photoshop CS2 (9.01) is my tool of choice.
