How do I make .jpg pics smaller that are already saved on my computer?

Question

How do I make .jpg pics smaller that are already saved on my computer? (Mine are 1,543,592 but for what I am trying to do, cannot exceed 1,000,000) Is there a way to do that, if they are already saved under Photos on my computer. (I have Windows Vista, if that makes a difference)????

Answer 1

go to google and look up picasa, download it.  then load all your pictures onto it.  when you want a pic to be smaller then just select the picture and click export picture.  it will be sent to a folder under "Picasa Exports"  and it will be smaller.  i do these for myspace pics (=

reminder to use copies of originals, if images are around 1.5 mb, and you need to make smaller in file size to 1mb, open image, check size properties, l x h and resolution, if resolution is high at 300+ you could try lowering 75%, and same with image size to 75%, save copy and check size,
