This may sound like a silly question, but how do i reduce the size of my photos for display on a webpage. I have them saved as 5x7, but when they come up on the screen, they are huge???? Nothing I am doing seems to work. I haven't had this happen before. Pat
Patricia, You need to resize the files in an image program - I use Paint Shop Pro. If they are sized in inches rather than pixels, 5x7 will be a tremendous photo. For the average photo, sizing it at 350 pixels wide usually works well. Another good idea is to compress the .jpg file at least 25% - this is something you can also do in PSP. You would be amazed at how much that reduces the actual size of the file which results in a much faster download time for the user.
