Hi techyv,
How to perform photo resizing for yahoo mail? I have some photos that needs to be resized before sending it to a friend through yahoo mail. I have almost fifty photos, I have to compress the file and save it into one folder. What is the best software that can compress the size of photos?
Hoping for your help. Thanks.
Hello Charles,
You can use Adobe Photoshop to lessen the sizes of the photos.
1. Open your photos with Adobe Photoshop.
2. Click file and select save images for web.
3. Adjust the number of colors used for the image to make the size become smaller.
4. And save it to desired format. (jpg gif png)
5. Put the photos all in one folder and archive it using winrar.
Hope it helps.
I thought you are referring “photo resizing” to the screen size or screen resolution of the picture. If you simply want to make the file size of the attachment smaller so you can mail it to your friend, the best way you can shrink the size is to compress them.
If you have multiple images that you need to send and you need the file size to be smaller, create a new folder on your hard drive then put all the pictures inside. Once all images are copied inside the new folder, download one of these file compressors and install:
When compressing, compress the folder not the pictures so the output will give you only one file. Like for example, in 7-Zip, select the folder you created then click “Add”. On the next screen, set the compression options. The default settings should work fine but if you want to achieve maximum compression for your files, set “Compression level” to “Ultra” or “Maximum” then “Compression method” to “LZMA2”.
Click “OK” to start compressing.
