You're doing a great job with the screenshots.
But for documentation, it's better if you take screenshots and:
- only crop. (Don't resize.)
- keep colors.
- You can remove the Alpha (transparency) layer though.
- I'm unsure exact steps in Photoshop, but in GIMP it's under Layer > Transparency > Remove Alpha Channel.
That will make sure they stay lossless.
The text/icons will still look perfectly crisp, etc.
That's the whole reason why PNG is better than JPG.

From there, if filesize is still an issue, further optimization can be done.
Remember, it's easier to always go DOWN in quality/resolution, but you can't reverse it and go UP.
