Lynn, I have some pix but they are all about 100 kb and I have not figured
out how to get them any smaller.  Any help?     TJ

1)Get a copy of the Gimp.  It's considered to be the Open Source Photoshop replacement.  It's free, there's a version for Windows, and it will save JPG files that are about 1/3 the size of what most of the window's programs put out.  I think all of the other programs must use a Microsoft DLL to handle JPGs because they all come out the same size.

2) Crop the picture down to only what is necessary.  The goes up by the square.  Double the size and the file is 4 times as large.

3) Convert to grayscale.  I believe your filesize will go down by a factor of 8.
