As of wednesday night we had our first official snow fall this year.  I couldnt help but get out the digital camera for a few shots...There were many more but these are then only ones i could shrink the file size enough.

Taken around 10 PM as the snow just kept on coming...This photo is not edited...With the clouds as low as they were the city lights made it seem as though it was only 6.  One of my other shots you could acualy make out some of the snowflake shapes.
...
Thanksgiving morning and just a couple taken from the back yard... I figure they might come into use on a project for my vocational class. 
...
Later on in the day...This shot was drasicaly reduced in quality while shrinking the file size...I was trying to capture an aproching cessna but for once the cammera snaped the shot early and it ended up hiding behind the tree Embarrassed  But there will be more shots to come.

What did you use to reduce the images? I find that IrfanView does a pretty good job on mine. If they're something very special I use the JPEG Optimizer feature in PSP7.

Thanks  Smiley

I to use irfanview to resize my shots.  but that particular one refused to shrink below 100 kb.  Finaly ended up with 15% quality and it was still over 90 kb Tongue

I'm not familiar with your image manipulation software, but see if you can reduce image size (picture area in pixels) a bit before you reduce the filesize (quality).........a slightly smaller image will contain less information and may allow you to drop below 100kb on some very full pics..........
