Having some 88,000 products of which I have an average of about 37,000 per website spread across some 5 plus websites, image size and speed of paging is a constant concern. We try to make sure all of our images are saved as .jpg or png. I also stress that we web optimize each image so that it speeds paging and also helps as we transfer images from server to server.
If you have access to Photoshop, it has the ability to size and scale images as well as easily web optimize them into high quality images as small as 5k. If anyone is interested you can like my Facebook page at hardwarestorecloseouts.com and I would be glad to set up a 15% discount for the KR group.

Perhaps the simple way I have found to reduce image file sizes is to use the inbuilt picture editor in all Windows products called Paint. It ain't elegant but it is quick and does the job and saves time installing any other type of software. You open Paint under the Accessories menu or enter pbrush in the Start Search box under the Windows menu and hit enter. (Or easier still right click the image file you want to open and select Open With>Paint from the drop down menu.) Once the Paint application is open you use File>Open (Ctrl-O) to open the photo image (if it isn't already open), then use the Image>Resize (Ctrl-W) option in the menu to resize the image to a smaller size then click File>Save As (so you don't overwrite the original image). If the image file isn't small enough just repeat till you get the image small enough. Cheers Gavin You should then be able to include the photos On 8 April 2013 14:44, Larry&Sallie Flesner <flesner at frontier.com> wrote: > > > Thanks Mark L. for the tip but I think I figured it out.?
