Um, you forgot to put your little lion logo...

I've had luck reducing the image size by going 40 - 60% of the actual image size.

Lion, are you using 'windows xp' ? Right click. should be able to resize.

a BOTL suggested to me, a download called PIXresizer . . . it did the trick and resizes for posting . . .

you can do it simply by opening the picture in paint shop and changing the image size, set the view to 100% so you know the ACTUAL size of the picture and then scale it down to a reasonable size (like what you see posted on the pix thread). If you have a better grafix prog like photoshop, then you can ask "trish" what pixel dimentions she wants and you can resize the image to that exact pixel size.

I tried cut and paste to get to a smaller image, but that worked for crud. So now I open it up into paint, go to the stretch/skew and change the 100's in the height and width to 60. Then I save to a new file name (so I can still access the original untouched picture) and check the size in find file. I continue to shrink until I reach 85 to 90kb. (I had one that was exactly 100kb reject)

Works much better than cut and paste.
