Just a quick one.

I'm not good at computers. I'm trying to upload some photos to eBay from my picture file on my laptop but they are too big.

Is there anyway that I can reduce the size of these pictures in the file?

They are jpegs downloaded straight from my camera.

Thanks in advance...

You may reduce them in size using photo-editing software.

If you have a photobucket type account you can upload them and edit them there.

If you have Windows XP:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/power...

Download and install the Image Resizer powertoy. Then browse for your photos in Windows Explorer, right-click and you will now have a "resize image" option.

HTH.

Look at the software that came with your camera.
There should be a resize tab.

Or downloard Irfanview, it's a quik download and works well.

Are you sure its already a jpg and not a tiff?
