About Martin Seymour
Expertise
I have worked in most aspects of still photography, using film and the wet process for 50 years. Employing all film formats 35mm to 8x10 sizes, I went over partly to digital cameras in 02, also PC editing of pictures. I still find film work more demanding , as you have to get it right at the start with no auto settings on the camera to cover my mistakes. Pictorial work is my personal interest. Its is not a good idea for me to suggest a particular make of equipment just a type, and its uses.

Question
Dear Martin-

Thanks for being available. I have some modeling shots that I need to send to agencies. My photographer gave them to me on a CD, which I then parsed into a file on my hard drive. The problem is that the pictures are about 2MB each! Yahoo does not allow such large files, and anyway- that's too big for email. I have Microsoft Photoshop. How do I shrink?

Thanks

Nancy

Hi Nancy
I have not used photo shop but try picking on one image and RIGHT click it with the mouse WITH LUCK YOU WILL GET THE OPTION TO COPY AND RESIZE,
Don't touch the original image but do a SAVE AS and make new smaller copy!

Good luck.
MARTIN.
