There's a version for Windows if that is all you have. Just load the pic and save as jpg. Most of the camera programs will save as jpg, but they do a poor job of compression. Load the same jpg in the Gimp, save it, and watch it loose 90% of its file size. A Google search with "gimp windows" will give you what you need. -- ----Because I can---- http://home.nc.rr.com/deltabuilder ------------------------
