Resizing images

dellas1979 · 2009-01-13 13:34:34

Hello, Am trying to submit photos to a website but it says that it only allows photos of 500kb or under. 1. Is 500kb reasonable? 2. How can I resize photos to be under 500kb? Thanks

1/ yes

2/ open image with microsoft paint.

click file - save as

click on arrow below where you edit the title of the image. choose JPEG

failing that. try type Resizing images into google. youd be amazed what you may find.
