Most picture editors can easily size pics. My favorite free one is Infranview. Once you have opened the image with it you just click on Image/Resize/Resample. You can choose the file size, dimensions, percent reduction, etc. Then save either with the same name or a new one.

Unfortunately some time ago the design of this forum software, which is used by many other sites, was changed so that Quick Reply no longer allows you to include a photo from your computer. If you are posting a new entry and not quoting someone you have to click on Post Reply (lower left of last post) or Go Advanced under the Quick Reply box and then choose the paperclip (Attachments) to insert a file from your computer rather than from a url from the Internet.
