INNOVATOR Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 How do I downsize an image for attachment? My images are already in .jpeg, but still too large Thank you:) Link to comment
dga Posted April 20, 2005 Share Posted April 20, 2005 you need some type of photoshopping software. adobe photoshop, jasc paint shop pro etc... even microsoft powerpoint or corel presentations can reduce your images. i like paint shop pro as i can not only easily resize the image but also compress it to keep the file size low and not lose much image information. a typical 2048x1536 (3.2 MP) of a outdoor scene based on a superfine setting would be around 800 - 900 kb in JPEG format. after resizing it (25% of original size) for web and compressing it would be about 100kb Link to comment

cadeucsb Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 just use MS Paint... if your using windows, you have it. Just use the "stretch/skew" option and specify the percentage you would like the pic. ie: you want it half as big, put 50% Link to comment
rbaby Posted April 22, 2005 Share Posted April 22, 2005 If you want you can e-mail it to me @ rbaby@softhome.net and I will web optimize it to maintain quality and reduce size...and I'll send it back to you. Reducing a jpeg in a program like MS Paint just means that you're reducing the image *size*...not file size per se. I can keep the size of the image (LxW) but reduce the file size so you can upload.
