Resizing images for the web
IMPORTANT:
Please rezise and compress your images BEFORE uploading them to your file store - it will save your visitors time when opening your pages and will save you money by using less bandwith when the image is viewed.
Note:
When you add an image to a web page you can specify the width and height of the image. This does not reduce the file size of the image it only changes the way it will display on your page. So don't be fooled, you must resize the image using a graphic editor program before you upload it to the website!
