I just got a Kodak Easy Share M530. I have used Kodak digital camera's for years. Everyone I have bought still work. My last one I used to take pictures of shoplifters and various crimes for work I dropped it a lot, splled stuff on it etc and it still works like brand new!

Anyways this new camera is a 12mp 3X Zoom. It's wiers though, some pictures come out as only like 18-30K and the ones I have recently took have been 1,872,00K and 2,250,00K. How do I fix it and make them all come out small?

The ones I am taking recently I can't post on websites, myspace and profiles because it says they are to big.

What Operating system do you have? Vista, Win 7?

It depends, because I can offer an easy to use program, but it depends what operating system you got.

I D K anything specifically about Kodak but in my owners manual there are settings in a chart and directions to adjust the resolution (file size)

Ok, I use this one, (windows 7) but also works in Vista.

Image resizer
http://imageresizer.codeplex.com/releases/view/51338

Very easy to use, just right click on any image (or entire folder) and click "resize" and then choose what size you want.

Alternatively you could also use a free photo editing program like photoscape

I'm convinced, whoever designed Microsoft Paint was someone who hates photo editing.

You can either change the size of the picture (megapixels) on the camera setup menu so when you take your photos they are not so big or use a software to re-size the picture after you uploaded it to the computer.
I use this one: Fotosizer http://www.fotosizer.com/Download.aspx its pretty easy to use and you don't lose much quality when resizing the pictures.

You can try having a look at the manual as well http://www.kodak.com/global/plugins/acrobat/en/service/manuals/urg01095/M530_xUG_GLB_en.pdf

Good Luck!
