Default Re-sizing photo's for posting

Och aye,

I've got some photies of my home gym but the size of the image is too big. It seems the largest size I can post is 97K. Mine are in the 100's.

What software and techniques are you lot using to get the image size down for posting?

Cheers.

The the image resizer tool from Microsoft. It is a powertoy that will resize images without opening them. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

A quick and dirty way if you don't want to mess with software is to email it to yourself (assuming you use Outlook or Express), and it will give you the option to make it smaller or keep original size.
