Reducing resolution/file size of a picture

Postby koolcat101 » Thu Dec 31, 2009 3:24 pm

Hello. I built a lego ship that I am very proud of but when I go to upload it it takes forever and I have a 3.1mgps conection. Eventually it comes up and the pictures is HUGE! So um if you could tell me how to fix that, it would be great, thanks

If u have MS Office, insert the image into MS Word, save it as a web page. It will create a folder with the name (whatever you save it as) with the original and optimised picture. It's an easy way for those without any imaging software at hand, provided you have MS Office!

I don't swear.....much! :whistling:

I'm sure S@m will do exemplary work for you. In the future, to fend for yourself... it really is as easy as opening it up in Paint, clicking the "Image" menu, selecting "Stretch/Skew" and then stretching it by a number LESS than 100% will reduce the size. Obviously 50% would make it half the size, 75% would make it a quarter of the size, etc. If you are having trouble with this concept, please proceed to Amazon.com and pick up a cheap Mathematics text book.


Are you trying to say Mbps? Or do you really have a Mega GPS unit?
