reducing photos

G'day Gob & Denny ,
open the folder your pic is in , right click on the one you want , left click edit , then in the toolbar at the top , left click image then strech/skew , a small window will open , in the strech part , change the percentage numbers down from 100% to about 50% , leave the skew part alone you don't need that , thensave it to a folder you use to upload from , now you need to open that folder and put the curser over this pic , read what the kb size is at the bottom of the small title window is , this needs to be as close to 50 kb but no more than 50 kb as you can get ,, you may need to repeat all this a few times to get it right , remember , as close as but no more than 50 kb ,, then once you get it to this size , you will be able to upload it , all the best !!

Hi GOB & denny, you will need an image editing program such as Adobe Photoshop,Microsoft Image Editor, Corel Draw, Paintshop Pro ect, which allows you to re-size your photo by pixels. Cheers.

Told ya, Use thumbs +!

The image resizer in Microsoft Power Toys for Windows XP works well...

Image resizer

Another is a freebie called Irfanview. A Google search will find a download site. Works well.

Steve I thought you were using "Easy Thumbnails" I got the link of EO from a previous post.
Saves a huge amount of mucking around, freeware from...

Best program I have come across for this sort of thing.

Cheers

I'm sure all the different methods work. I just downloaded the image resizer from the link Blue provided above. Works a dream. Even I worked it out in a few seconds.

Go on the internet and download a free photo resizer, its not hard and its FREE

cheers

goodevenig all

thanks for all the replies i currently use thumbnail but it only reduces the picture by the looks not the pixel rate as the photos i am trying to upload have decreased in size ie under 50k but will still not load so the only thing must be pixel size so i will try a different program .with thumbs i reduced quality to under 50%but still will not go

stay tuned u may find my computor jammed into itself soon
