[ARC5] Posting photos

[Leslie Smith]

Regarding photos - I regularly 'shrink' photos that I post overseas.
I bring the size down:  This is what I observe:
    Width                 Files size
     2560                   big
       900                   close to 250k
       750                   185k
       705 mono          177k     ( I expected to see larger difference
       between mono and colour)
       600 pixels          136k    (colour)   

I use software called IRFANVIEW to do change photo size.  (IRFANVIEW is
a primitive but basic photo editor.   Free.)
Some basic features (modify size, see next file in folder, save to
folder) make the process easy for a handful of photos.
Example:  tap the space bar to see the next file in a folder.  
Open/select and a thumb-nail window shows the photo of interest.  This
is great when looking at one dozen files from a camera with only a date
and incremental number.

Handy software, not fancy.  PLUS - it has a very functional
'screen-grabber'.
