Try IrfanView
http://www.irfanview.com/

A FREE image viewing software that enables the altering of image-size or image-resolution to decrease size

Note:
- Some files, by default, are big in size, such as Bitmas (BMP)
- Make sure the file is JPG to have true colors with small size
- Don't drop file resolution a lot as the image won't look nice
- Don't chrop / shrink the picture a lot to make it viewable

Now this is a departure from Yahoo but Google has a great tool for organizing adjusting and exporting pictures. Go to http://picasa.google.com/ and click on FREE DOWNLOAD. Install the program and get it running. It will locate your pictures and organize them by folders.

Click on the picture or pictures you want to email and click the email icon at the bottom of the page and it will resize the photo for you. If you wish to use yahoo mail to send them then instead click on the export button and it will allow you to resize them and it will export the photos to a new folder (you'll have to tell it where to go) Good Luck

If you're sending them in Outlook then right click on the picture and you can resize it right there. Grab the end with the arrow and make it smaller. I've done it many times and it works well.

Hope that helps.

Open the Picture in Microsoft Photo editor, Click SAVE AS, in the dialog box click More info and reduce the Quality factor Littlebit and save the image in JPG format, I bet it will decrease the file size by 70%...

I use IRfan Veiw. it works great! After you open the picture, click the "Image" drop down and select Resize/Resample... and select the size to change it too, i suggest 8-- x 600 pixels

Newbie way:

1. goto start, run, type mspaint
2. goto menu File, open, look for your image file
3. goto menu image, pick expand or....
4. there's a menu horizontal, vertical with 100% change it to a smaller value, both values must be same, example 25%
5. goto menu, file, save as, save it to your hard drive.

Expert way:

No need to explain, just use photoshop or any image editing program.
