How to Reduce Photo Memory Size Without Affecting Quality

By Cool Buster

Okay, let's go straight forward. I took a picture using a Canon camera and downloaded it in the computer. I found out that the memory size of the photo is almost 6 mb so it's quite large and I can't upload it on Friendster because they only allow 2 mb files or below.


I wanted to reduce the memory size of the photo without affecting the quality and the physical size. Hmmm. To make the story short...I found a solution! which I want to share with you.

* First, download PhotoFiltre and install it.
* Then open the photo file to edit.
* Look for the Image menu tab and click it.
* In the dropdown menu, click Image size... or press Control +H.


* A new window will appear that shows the Width, Height and Resolution of the photo.


* Now, change the value in the Width box with 800 up to 1024. The Height value will automatically follow according to ratio if the Preserve aspect ratio box is checked.
* Change the Resolution to the minimum which is 10. Click Ok.
* Save your work and close PhotoFiltre.


* The next time you click the Properties of the photo, you will notice a very big reduction on the memory size, from almost 6 mb to just 510 kB. There is slight reduction on the physical size but the quality is not affected as you can see in the screenshot.


There you go. I hope these tips will help. Now you can upload quality photos in Friendster faster and without worrying on the file size limitation.
