  Can I feed a compressed PNG file through PNGOUT and get an uncompressed PNG?
  
  I don't seem to have software that will let me save a PNG file with no compression.

  PNGOUTWin will allow you to create uncompressed PNG files.
  
  In the Strategy Page in the settings, set the compression mode to "No compression."
  
  There is a similar setting that can be used with multiple trials.
  
  PNGOUTWin has a free 30 day trial available at http://www.ardfry.com/pngoutwin

  Pngout will also let you save an uncompressed png, just use /s4 /force, as explained in the help (pngout /?)
  
  Make sure you have the current version (/s was added recently)
