Reducing digital photo file size

[leco]

Hello Mac people I am hoping that you can help out a PC user here. I am looking for an application for reducing the file size of digital photo's. I know of PIXresizer for a PC but is there a similar (free) one for Mac's?

Hi,

 

If you have bought your Mac recently it will probably have come with iPhoto. In that case follow these steps:

You could also just use "Preview" on your Mac. Open up your image in Preview and navigate to the Tools menu. There you will find an "Adjust Size" menu option which will open up a sheet that lets you do what it says. Then crop the image and save as.

 

Here's a link to a (very short) article about the same thing:
