I have an iMac and im having trouble resizing my pictures. Ive been using iPhoto to resize them and they change from really huge to 640 pixels but the file size stays the same. Any ideas on how to get the file size to 100k or less? The FAQ would help if I had a PC but I don't.

I found this forum which has some info which may be helpful?

Also, see this at the Apple support site:

It has pictures showing how to use iPhoto, it covers most of the bases!

Last but not least, if that doesn't work, check out iResize:

These help me resize it, but the file size is staying the same size. Why? How can I reduse the size to fit this site? I must not be smart enough to use this iMac.

I don't understand Macs either, so don't feel bad :\

Damned things are too complicated. Sorry I can't help more!

Just a thought, are your pics in JPEG format. I dont know about mac but on a pc the files are usually too large in other formats.
