Is it possible to set the compression level for a jpeg image in WebImage class?

Question

Is it possible to set the compression level for a jpeg image in WebImage class? Or would i have to use the Image class for this?

You have to use the Image to compact it first. After compacted, you could use this on WebImage.

Here is a sample where I convert a base64 to image, but try to understand the compress logic (the 80L is the level of compression):

public MemoryStream Base64ToJpeg(string imgFoto)
{
    Image imagemASerAjustada = null;
    Bitmap bmpTemporario = null;
    MemoryStream imagemCompactadaStream = new MemoryStream();
    EncoderParameters myEncoderParameters = new EncoderParameters(1);
    try
    {
        // removemos o cabeçalho a respeito do tipo da imagem
        string base64 = imgFoto.Substring(imgFoto.IndexOf(',') + 1);
        base64 = base64.Trim('\0');
        // convertemos em um array de bytes
        byte[] img = Convert.FromBase64String(base64);

        // transformamos a base64 em imagem
        imagemASerAjustada = Image.FromStream(new MemoryStream(img));
        // convertemos a imagem em Bitmap
        bmpTemporario = new Bitmap(imagemASerAjustada, new Size(140, 140));
        ImageCodecInfo jpgEncoder = GetEncoder(ImageFormat.Jpeg);
        // Create an EncoderParameters object.
        // An EncoderParameters object has an array of EncoderParameter
        // objects. In this case, there is only one
        // EncoderParameter object in the array.
        Encoder myEncoder = Encoder.Quality;
        using (EncoderParameter myEncoderParameter = new EncoderParameter(myEncoder, 80L))
        { 
            myEncoderParameters.Param[0] = myEncoderParameter;
            bmpTemporario.Save(imagemCompactadaStream, jpgEncoder, myEncoderParameters);
        }
        return imagemCompactadaStream;
    }
    catch
    {
        throw;
    }
    finally
    {
        if (imagemCompactadaStream.Length > 0)
        { 
            imagemASerAjustada.Dispose();
            bmpTemporario.Dispose();
            myEncoderParameters.Dispose();
        }
    }
}

private ImageCodecInfo GetEncoder(ImageFormat format) { ImageCodecInfo[] codecs = ImageCodecInfo.GetImageDecoders();

    foreach (ImageCodecInfo codec in codecs)
    {
        if (codec.FormatID == format.Guid)
        {
            return codec;
        }
    }
    return null;
}

You can save the Stream in the WebImage(Stream)
