Have you tried the save for web option? I don't have Photoshop, but have heard plenty on the option.

Yep, use the Save for Web option and don't be afraid to use a really low compression setting if you need to.

Hi Tricia, If you have photoshop I assume you have ImageReady also. You can export your thumbnail to Adobe ImageReady and optimize it. I assure you you can get it under 15K easily... Just follow this mini Tut. JV :o)

That's a way to do it, but why not simply use the Save for web option? Afaik it uses ImageReady too, opens a new window and all :o) And it's only 1 click :o)

here's a better solution and IT DOESN'T NEED TO REDUCE IMAGE QUALITY! Open your newly rendered JPG in Window's Paint program (you know, the one in the accessories folder you never use?) then just hit save. you don't have to convert to a different format. just load the JPG and hit save. it resaves it in JPG format without reducing picture quality. if you check the new JPG's properties you'll see that the file went ALL THE WAY DOWN! anyway, i had the same problem. i needed a 40KB thumbnail but the pic i had was 43KB...i used window's paint and it shrunk it all the way down to 4.04KB without any aparent resolution decrease.

I use "Save for web" for the main picture as well. 80 quality for the picture and 50 quality for the thumb seems pretty good to me. It means a 200x200 thumb rolls in at 4-5kb.

In "Save for web" in PhotoShop you can also change the image size, which is pretty useful too at times. 8)

I use "Save for Web" for almost everything. It's a wonderfully handy thing.
