email them to the smaller picture fairy...


but seriously...go into "paint", every PC has it...open the picture then under "tools" chose stretch/skew...and change the % size...make sure to change horozontal and vertical to the same amount.

i don't think that you can't choose to make it a jpg in paint by selecting it, but you can trick your comp into thinking it is by typing ".jpg" after it . then bam, you're supported

Download "picture resizer" from Microsoft. It's like a 10 second download and it just automatically installs it in your right click as "resize image."

Gigantic pics used to give me fits until I did that. Paint sucks.
