How do you make a picture be smaller than 700 k? - Abbey - 11-09-2012 08:30 PM
On Twitter, I'm trying to change the picture of me. Its over 700 k (I honestly have no idea what this means) and it apparently can't be that big. Can somebody tell me how I can (easily) make it small enough? Thanks

All you can do is crop it.

right click the picture and press edit it should bring you to an editing program or pain press crop and crop it so your face is still in the picture...... or a better way is to use the resize button

open the picture in a picture editing program then use file>save as , pick a new name and select jpg or jpeg as the type then select a compression setting to reduce the size 60% should be OK

this means that your picture is too big and it's bigger than allowed. Use any free editing program to easily crop your picture to some smaller size.
