The new file should be significantly smaller than your original.

here is a shot that earp101 sent me. as wouter suggested i converted the file to a more efficient compression. the originals are .jpg, so i just changed the resolution a bit. these are 94% of the original resolution which reduces the file to a ledge acceptable size. i hope everyone can see it. if not i can do it a different way like sf2k suggests.
thanks to earp101 for this. he'll send more if this seems like an ok approach.
