How do I reduce the bytes on pictures so I can post them? Steve

You have to use a photo editor to reduce the size and save in a compression format like .jpg . It's kinda like a zipping program. Whats the file size of the image now?

Putting your photos on a diet is pretty easy to do with most photo editing software. You can do this in two ways. First, crop the image to get rid of the excess backgound. Then change the file quality when you save it. The combination should get you useable file sizes.

Bytes are 132,---. Will try my photo software and see what happens. Thanks Dr. and Lee. Steve

132 bytes is tiny. Photos in the range of 15,000-45,000 are typical. That's 15-45 KB (Kilobytes). Send me the image on email.

The Image is on it's way back to you.

Ulead has a program called smartsaver Pro. It will take your image and compress it so that it looks great without sacrificing quality. You can resize it too. I use it for all my JPGs before posting to the web. Makes jpg files load faster. I have no affiliation with this product other than being a satisfied customer.
