You could probably make it into an SVG file to reduce the size even more.

Love this idea. A novel vectorization.

Adding my voice to this. It would be an amazing tool for web work -- the vectorized images look far better than the very small jpeg images used in lazy loading today.

Similar functionality is already implemented in Boxy SVG editor [1]. There is also another more powerful "Primitivize" generator which has more options, e.g. you can choose whether the vectorized image should consist from triangles or rectangles.

And could inline, so that the preview image is loaded with the page itself.
