Windows 8 ISO size

[1010101110]

Where should i be shooting for a smaller windows 8 iso size? Is there better way to make it smaller than i did without removing core functionality?

 

OEM ISO: en_windows_8_pro_vl_x64_dvd.iso 3.33GB

 

Mod ISO: Win8-ByMe.iso 2.59GB

 

keeping: 

IE, remote desktop, .net 3.5, windows update

 

 

process:

1. DISM mount, remove all metro apps, cleanup, unmount - commit

2. toolkit remove compenents, add tweaks, rebuild

3. vlite remove components, rebuild

4. vlite make ISO

well check my Micro 7, 8 & 8.1 versions, i don't know whether i can take other forum names here, So all i say is google is your best friend.

 

Or if there is a place in this forum where i can release my ISO's please let me know, i don't mind in adding my stuff here as well.

 

regards
