How do I change the size of my photos?

I need to send a photo and I am finding my photos in iphoto are very large. How do I decrease the size? I tried changing the size in the program but it doesn't seem to work. It needs to be 640 x 480 pixels and no more than 200 kb. HELP!

Greetings,
Highlight the image(s).
Go to File > Export.
Configure the window as below (you may need to tinker with the "JPEG Quality" setting to make the file size smaller -- Maxiumum = Big file size, Low = Small file size):
Cheers.

  • How do you change the size of a photo in a document?

    Hello

    Thanks

    TextEdit is not a very sophisticated program. As far as I know, there's no way to resize an image on the fly in TextEdit, so you'll have to follow Shotgun00's advice.
    I would advise not using TextEdit for anything real. Buy yourself a copy of Pages from the App Store instead, you'll be much happier with its capabilities if you intend to create complex documents containing images and text.

  • How do you change the size of a photo file?

    I volunteer for an animal rescue organization, and I need to post some digital photos I took of some kittens I am fostering on petfinder.org as soon as possible. The photos I have are too large for the website to handle - I need to reduce the file size before they will accept them. How do I do this? I need to find out as quickly as I can so I can get these little guys posted and work on finding them homes. Any help would be extremely appreciated! (I know I have an old iPhoto program - should I be embarrassed? - and an old computer ... wish I had better equipment, believe me!)

    tinyfoo,
    the fastes and easiest way to reduce the size (pixels) is to go to your:
    iPhoto Menu > Share > Email > you should choose small or medium... and mail it to another account, open email, copy to desktop and you've got a reduced size of photo that will work nicely on most websites... you'll notice that directly below this window, you will see how large or small the file has gotten "Estimated Size", this refers to the same number of 500 in your post...
    You can actually do it another way, is to > Share > Export > choose "Scale No Larger Than:", here you need to ask your webmaster what size is preferred... fill in and export to your desktop...
    Otherwise, you would need to use an image edting software to "Optimize" image... Personally, I would use the email function... Best wishes on your project, Rick

  • How do you change the size of pictures?

    Hello,
    I'm a new Mac user. How do you change the size of pictures in iPhoto? Sometimes when sending e-mails, the picture files are extremely large and take a long time to load... Is there any way you can make the picture or file smaller? Like on a PC, you can open the photo in the Paint program and just reduce the size... Is there anything like this for the Mac?
    Thanks!

    Assuming that you're accessing your email package from INSIDE iPhoto, you're given a choice of picture sizes. Personally, I've found "medium" to be a good compromise but you might prefer "small" (iPhoto will tell you the file size).
    If you don't know what I'm talking about, first go iPhoto Preferences > General and select your email client. Then, go to the View menu and select Show in Toolbar > Email.

  • How do I change the size of the tools and the text for the menus in Photoshop?  I need a magnifying glass in order to make out what they are.

    How do I change the size of the tools and the text for the menus in Photoshop?  I need a magnifying glass in order to make out what they are.

    Okay, I've figured it out, so I'm going to answer my own question in hopes that it may help anyone else that would like to actually be able to see what they're doing when using Photoshop CC 2014 on a high resolution screen.
    1.  Open Photoshop.
    2.  Select Preferences from the Edit Menu, then select General.
    3.  Change the HUD Color Picker to Hue Strip (Medium).
    4.  Select Interface from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
    5.  Change the UI Font Size to Large in the Text area of the Preferences dialog box.
    6.  Select Experimental Features from the Preferences menu on the left side of the dialog box.
    7.  Select Scale UI 200% for high-density displays (Windows only).
    8.  Click on OK, then Exit/Quit Photoshop.
    9.  Open Photoshop and everything should be readable.

  • How do i change the size of the flexible space in tool bar

    if the feature, "flexible space", to customize the tool bar is truly "flexible", then how do i change the size of it?

    still doesn't make sense to me. this is what i've done...first of all, i installed FF4 and didn't like it. but i did play around with some of the toolbar settings to try to get rid of the new "add-on bar" at the bottom. so i went back to FF3.6 and continued to play with the toolbar settings. i put the google search in the menu bar, but wanted to space it to the left, off the right margin. that's when i discovered the "flex space". you can indeed put the flex space in the menu bar to shift an item (button OR google search box) to the left or right. where i run into an issue is, in order to shift an item from, let's say the far right margin to the center, i would have to insert multiple flex spaces or i could also use the other "space". although, the "space" is two or three times as wide as the "flexible space". maybe the trouble that i'm having is the name"flexible space" which seems to imply that item has a flexible width. both "flexible space" and "space" do exactly the same thing, except "space" is wider than "flexible space". am i right? did i miss something? here is a screenshot to illustrate.

  • How do I change the size of my screen, in Develop Module, so that I can access the Exposure Slide in the right-hand colummn?

    The right-hand column, under the Develop Module, begins with the Histogram and directly under the Histogram, the Tone Curve is seen.  Missing is the Exposure Slide.  How do I change the size of the screen to show the Exposure Slide before the Tone Curve?

    Right-click (Cmd-click Mac) on the tone curve panel header or any of the other panel headers and make sure there is a checkmark for Basic.

  • How do I change the size of a Spry Input Text field box?

    I created an email reply box, and then I created a reply message box. How do I change the size of each box independantly of each other? All I have is one set of Spry CSS rules!
    Oh, and the Working with the Validation Text Rule widget file in the Help Resource Center only covers changing the background color - Ugh!

    If I understand your question, you want to change the size of the input field that has spry validation?
    Spry has nothing to do with it, add a size to the field
    <input name="textfield1" type="text" id="textfield1" size="45" />
    <input name="textfield2" type="text" id="textfield2" size="25" />

  • How can i change the size of PDF files ?

    how can i change the size of PDF files? when i convert documents in the acrobat browser it seems the files become larger then normal pdf files, this is, i compare with other files that people send to me and i realise that they are smaller than my converted files, even if they have more pages.

    A lot depends on the form of the PDF. Is it graphics, a scan of a text file, pure text, or other? What version of Acrobat are you working with.
    You can do a save as to get a WORD file, but do not expect great results. The ability to get a decent WORD file depends on what the form of PDF you are working from. If it was created from WORD with tags and all, you might get good results. If not, you might get a lot of messed up results.
    Explain what you are starting with and your ultimate goal. Also check the audit of the file (should be under PDF Optimize) to see where the file information is concentrated (text, fonts, graphics, other).

  • HT2523 how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste

    how can i change the size of the picture i have copied and paste

    If this question is about TextEdit, I don't think you can do it in TextEdit, after pasting the image.  TextEdit is meant to be a basic text editing program.
    You will have to open the image file in an image editing application.  You can use Preview for doing this, or something more fancy.  If it's Preview, just open the image file.  From the menu bar, under Tools, select Adjust Size.  Make the image the desired size.  Then, select (outline) the portion of the image you want in the Preview document window.  Copy it, and paste it into the TextEdit document window.
