You can use paintshop or one of those programmes or i use a free ware called Irfanview
you can download it at
http://www.irfanview.com and follow the links or u2u me your email and i will send it to you.
It really is easy to use this programme for down sizing pictures.
Open picture as jpeg
Click -
Image
Resize – and set at 600 x 400 and nice large size
Then click –
File
“SAVE AS” and click options and there is a slider bar
Set it at 50
That should set the picture nice and big and only about 40kb
IF it is still over
click –
File
“SAVE AS” and click options and there is a slider bar
Set it at 30??
If you are over 50kb it says that...and just forwards you back to the site so my guess is you are over the 50kb limit.
It is quality not sive you want to reduce.
u2u me if you are still having trouble.
