Tony,

I always work with Microsoft Picture Manager.....have attempted to show the steps in this pic

See if it helps


Anything around 80 > 150 kb seems good enough for posting on forums. But I usually save the original at the full pixel size in case I want to print it or do other things later

Hi Tone,

I believe unless I'm mistaken that pic sizes need to be 160kb or less to post on this site, I have had to resize some of my pics to post them.
I use Paintshop Pro to resize my pics and I generally resize them % wise and then re-check the file size.

Regards,

Jeremy
