Well I owe you an apology as well. Obvviously I meant to send that message
to you privately, and goofed up.
Using Irfanview, open the picture file, Select Image /Resample-
Resize
Set your size to 280 X 360 pixels or so and 72 dpi.
When I did that to your photo it came out at 56KB when saved.
Or you can use:
Microsoft Office
Picture Manager.
If so there are
two ways to reduce your picture size. Under the Picture Tab
select:
Resize
Click on
Predefined Width and Height and select Email Large
or
Click on
Percentage of original Width and Height and select a percentage the set the
picture size to 280 X 360 pixels or so. (that is approximately 4" X 5"
on a monitor)

Hi John
Sorry about the
photo ... I had reduced it using Irfanview but I guess I assumed it reduced
the kb's & pix's.
I've tried every possible
thing with Irfanview to resize to 50kb or less using 72dpi it but it still
makes it very large kb's (unless I'm doing something wrong in
Irfanview!)
I'll refrain from sending photo's until I know what &
how to fix them and/or afford software to resize them for this
forum
Again, Sorry........
