Making photos smaller

[Ade]

I still do not know how to make my photos smaller...

Can anyone please explain to me in the most simplest of terms?

Hi Joan
The question is ambiguous because "smaller" can mean more than 1 thing.

I know Jangar has provided a solution, I just thought a bit of backgrouond might be useful.

In your case you want the picture to take up less disk space (i.e. to be a smaller no. of kilobytes).
Using photo editing software, when you save a picture as a JPeG you can usually set the compression value. Less compression will give you a larger file with better quality. More compression will give you a smaller file with not so good quality. The size of the picture when viewed remains the same.

I use something called Easy Thumbnails, which which you can resize (both file size and image size) a lot of pictures in one go. Very useful when you make a website with thumbnails, when clicked on you see the full size picture.
