At the time I 'upgraded' to 7, I googled 'resize jpg files on win7' and came up with a routine that has worked nicely over the past several years. Once it was installed, and I right mouse clicked on one or more JPG files, I was presented with a 'resize' option. By highlighting one or more pics, the routine reduces the pixel count, often from a high of roughly 2.0mb from my Canon point and shoot down to 250-300KB. It also offers the choice of retaining the original high resolution pics, or replacing them with the low res version.
I believe there are similar routines[/align] available for newer versions of the Windows operating system.

It's been quite a while since I had to dirty my hands with the engineering abomination called MS Windows, (or for that matter, anything in the the straitjacket-friendly Apple product repertoire
but at the time a simple application called "Irfanview" (http://www.irfanview.com) was my choice for quick and dirty image manipulation. Does just about everything an amateur photographer needs to do, and nothing more. (btw. "...and.nothing.more..." is a precious software feature most applications are completely missing these days!)
