File Size above 500kb
« on: Wednesday 22 November 06 17:16 GMT (UK) »
I have 2 jpeg images that I would like made into one. It is a news paper front page. The jpeg file sise is 6mb, too big for here. How can I reduce it, I already set the Quality to 0 and LOW.

Thanks
Zed

If you have a program like Photoshop you can reduce the size and the quality.

Hi Z1100

Welcome to Rootschat.

Whatever you do, do not reduce the quality to low. You need to reduce the dimensions not the quality.

PS

A few of us are quite happy to receive the large files via e-mail and resize them and put them up on the board for others to restore for you.
