Photoshop 6.0

Open the image. (File->Open)
Save for web. (File->Save for Web)
Play around with the settings Image Size, Quality and JPEG/GIF to make the image file smaller. Click tab "Optimized" to view the result of your settings. When you are happy with the quality and size of the file click "OK" to finish.

Example: original image is 1780x1201 24bit color, data size is 6.1MB. finished image is 750x506 24bit color jpeg. File is now down to 27.3 kB

Thanks Magnus. I got some crapy software with this Olympus digital. Hell, my $60 digital had beter software. Will try and pick Photoshop online in one of the hack sites.

Go Here and get IrfanView. It's a FREE graphics program that most people consider the best Freeware program on the net. It will allow you to Resize\Resample any graphic with just a couple of clicks. One of those must have things. Good luck.

I tried IrfanView, it does the job well. No need to get photoshop just to do this kind of work.
