Alright so I have this example image that I need help learning how to compress and on how to compress things in the future 
This is indeed 128x128. In the future, Scrub, you can highlight the image in PICO-8 and select CTRL-C.
Then CTRL-V direct in your message here.
Gimme a sec. Want to make this code as short and simple as I can ... here ya go.
. . .
Way Of The Emigu ? A new alien race perhaps ?
BTW, to list all files in a directory, use "DIR *" It will list not only .P8 files but anything else you have there.
HOPE THIS HELPS !
So how does it work though? Thats what I'm really curious about
It's really straight-forward. Check the source-code.
In pico-8 type: LOAD #WAYOFEMIGU
It's merely reading the sprite memory data as bytes and stuffing it into a string as 2-character hex.
Then it use printh() command to save to clipboard.
To retrieve it, it reverses the process.
Nothing more mystical than that. :)
