to shrink your pics (jpg anyway) make a copy and open the pic file in the windows paint program. goto "image" and select "stretch/skew". you will then be able to change the horiz and vert by percentage. replace the "100%" values with what ever value you need. i go from about 25 to 33 % for a decent postable image size. (use the same number for both values or you end up with a flat or tall pic)
