search google for online image reduction, then pick a good one and look through the options carefully after you get to the upload screen. some
resizers allow you to resize to an exact pixel size. bumping up the sharpness / contrast of the resized image also helps.
fixed bridles, flying static, been two years now... ??? folks must be wondering....
sting 1.7, dp power 2.5, crossfire 3.2, ace 5, blade iv 6.5, ace 8, ace 12...
also a couple of arcs, 12 syn and 12 phanny, but i\'m not yet up to speed on them.

You can download a copy of Picassa for free from Google.
Use it to do basic color and contrast correction as well as cropping.
Then use the "Export" button to export the photo in the size you want.
Picassa use useful to have anyway and the price is right.
