New compression method

[Jeff_Rice]

Well, why did you post anything at all if you are trusting no one? Without your algorithm it is very difficult to help you.

Compression is like factoring. In factoring, you take a complex equation and can define it simply by its solutions. In compression you do a similar thing. However, you will eventually run into a floor no matter how good a compression system you use. This is due to the fact that the information is still there, just in a compressed format. I am guesing your algorithm has some sort of system for recording what it has done in order that it can be undone. This file created requires space. The more times you compress, the closer the file is to becoming "prime" toward the algorithm. Eventually you reach a point where the information to expand the file makes the file large enough that compression will not make the whole set any smaller.

So basically what ryan morehart said, but in more generic terms.
