Reducing the size of images in FrontPage
Resizing FrontPage images doesn't reduce their file size
(98/2000/2002/2003)
Many
novice FrontPage users assume that resizing an image (by
dragging one of its size handles) reduces the image's file
size--which determines how quickly the image will load in the
browser. In reality, though, resizing has no effect on its
file size.
Once
you've resized an image by dragging one of its size handles, you
must then resample it by clicking the Resample button on the
Pictures toolbar. Doing so not only reduces the file size
but generally improves the image's appearance significantly.
You can find out much more by searching the
internet for 'image resizing'. There are countless sites
that explain the resizing process in various detail.
