You are going to need some sort of photo editing software. I use and prefer Adobe Photoshop, it is expensive however and there are many more options available. These software applications allow you to change the size of the image either in inches/centimeters, or by size in pixel's. There should be a slew of free photo editing software around the internet. You can try www.tucows.com for starters. You can even have some fun ediitng the picture in other ways, i.e. the sharpness, or apply some cool filters to it. If you cant find anyhting and dont want to spend any money, send me the pictures and elt me know what you want, I've done photo ediitng for quite some time. Just let me know.

 

Alright thanks man. Im gonna try and find something free that will work if not i'll clean my bike and make it a very good photo and send it your way(that ways its worth you time) Thanks a million

 

Hey no problem, just let me know...

 

You can always use paint. It comes with windows. Not the best but it works.

 

did ya get it to work?

 

Guess not lol

 

Miscrosoft Photo Editor (which I think is standard with Windows these days) works fine, too. Not as sophisticated as Adobe, etc... but you can both reduce the size and the quality (which will greatly reduce your filesize).

If you're still having problems, feel free to email me the pics and I'll shrink 'em down and send them back to you.

I can resize them... email them to me at Amanda@CBRForum.com

Does your camera have different settings for compression and quality? My new Cannon allows me set it up for e-mailable pics (from about 1Mb, regular setting, to 50K). Just a thought.
