I've had the best luck using opitpng and then pngout.

https://github.com/ajslater/picopt ...will do this automatically for you.

Pictopt: A multi-format, recursive, multiprocessor aware, command line image optimizer utility that uses external tools to do the optimizing.

For an all in one GUI for Mac approach to this, try ImageOptim

PNGOut is definitely better than OptiPNG most of the time:

zopflipng (with -m switch) is close to or better than the best on those five images:
