I am trying to upload an image to a website and I am getting a message to
make the image smaller to 100KB. How do I do this and will it mess up the
file for later use?

Wanda,
Two ways you can do this. In either case, you need an image editing
program, such as IrfanView (www.irfanview.com - it's free)

Resize the image, so that it has fewer pixels, and thus will display smaller
on the web page destination

-or-

Save it with a greater compression setting, thus reducing the quality of the
image, but maintaining its physical size.

In either case, save the modification as a new file (File/Save As...) so
that you don't affect your original image. You may have to experiment with
either method to find a setting that just meets the 100KB limit while
maintaining the best image size/quality that you find acceptable

Sometimes all you have to do is open it with MS Paint (using File-Open) -
then save it, preferably with a different file name.

Check out the "Image Resizer" available in XP Power toys - when installed it
can be accessed by right clicking image and choosing resize from content
menu.
