help-can't get my photos to fit

16 Sep 2004

Hi there, I was wondering if there was anyone out there who could help me with a small (or large) problem. I can't seem to get my photos small enough to send to an advert. I can get them down to 170 kb (ish) but have to get them down to 50kb. Does anyone know how? confused

Get a proggie like paintshop pro and learn how to compress JPEGs... dead easy... do a search for a JPEG compression tutorial smile

That's good for getting them down to postage stamp size for an avatar pic but it's much better to use a picture editor to create 50kb photo-ad pics.
