I am trying to upload a picture and it won't let me because the picture is to large. I need it to be 250 kb or below. Any help would be appreciated

It is true that reducing the dimensions can greatly reduce the size of your document. But you can also reduce the file size by compressing the file as a JPG.
It depends on your software. JPGS are saved so that the file gets smaller by reducing the quality and increasing the 'compression.' Usually programs use a quality scale of 1-100 or 1-10. Or sometimes small, medium and large, or low-high quality. Depending on your use, medium or even medium-low quality is often fine, especially for the web.
Be sure to keep a high quality original. Then try saving at a lower quality/higher compression. Look at the pic to make sure it does not look too blurry or blotchy. If it is, then try again at a higher quality/lower compression setting.

Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, Ilustrator, Irfanview, Thumbplus, Image viewer, etc. Hope that helps.

Use any Photo editing soft to reduce the quality a bit let say from 100% to 95 -90 % . this should slove it.
Softwares like Photoimpression

You open the picture with paint. Then you click Image>Stretch/Skew Then in the stretch portion of the box you make in smaller. Instead of the 100 being there put in maybe 75 or less.

there's an extremely easy-to-use photo editing program called irfanview that's free (from download.com, etc.)... you can then simply go into "change size" and make it a little smaller. the picture will shrink a little, but not too much for only 46 kb. if shrinking it makes it fuzzy, select "sharpen image" ... i forget which tab it's under, but it should clear it up.

You can either trim the margins with a photo editing program, or wash it in really hot water and dry it on the cottons setting of your dryer.
I'd go for the photo editor first though.
