Is there a way to compress jpegs?

[Chef55]

I only have iphoto on my imac. Photo's that I send thru msn are far too large. Is there a way of making them smaller? Thank you

Export them and play with the settings

Or use Seashore.

Yes actually, after you import the photos into iPhoto you want to go to File>Export and choose your compression/resizing.

Alternatively, you can choose a number of photos and hit the little "e-mail" button on the lower right hand corner where you can compress for e-mail and send that way.

Does that make sense?

The email setting will also resize - even with compression (all jpg are compressed by default) a full sized file will still be pretty big. If you're going to print something, don't use the email setting, but for just sharing on a monitor or use on cellphone, etc, downsizing and compressing will save a lot of space.

you can also resize them using Preview
