How can you change the size of the pixels so you can upload to a website?

Hello

I'm a newby at doing a website. Have uploaded the website but the photos and themes (background) are not coming through.

I was wondering how to make the pixels of the photos smaller so when people look/upload the site it doen't take forever?



Should the picture be tranfered to paint then saved? and how do you do that? when I try the picture gets smaller and some of the picture gets cutout.

Or is there a programme to help with editing pictures then to upload to my website



Any thoughts how to do this would be great.

Try to use background colors instead, or small, tile able images. Use appropriate format for images: jpg for images with lots of colors, gif for images with areas that are the same color. Never use the width and height attributes in img tags, re-size them in a graphics editor such as gimp and photoshop.

Websites that have many images and fast to load are easy to make, if you know what you are doing.How can you change the size of the pixels so you can upload to a website?

Remember that there are 2 ';sizes'; for pictures. One is the size you look at and one is the size of the file. File size is what takes so long to load. Try to keep under 100KB
