.... here is part of the answer


Do a search for " Irfanview " under my name.

Here is a cut and paste of one of my replies


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.

I've increased the max image size to 100 kb. You can also use the gallery (see the links!) to host your albums - no nasty watermarks.
