Save the created image differently so you don't hurt the original and scroll over the new file in the folder to see if you are under 300 kb. Gets really easy after a while. Everything from Windows 3.1 to win 98 to 2000 to vista to windows seven and beyond always has "Paint" under the accessories. Still a very useful program 25 years on. Report this Post to the Staff

Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16837 Posts	Posted 09/18/2017 7:38 pm I'd say my opinion is confirmed. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
