>> Does anyone know how to make photographs post smaller here? ... I hate taking up such a large space for the pictures (bandwidth, I guess).

> Inside of the brackets you can add a width=600 or whatever size you want and it will reduce it.

True. Note, however, that spec changes only the display of the image on the webpage.

In other words, the WIDTH=xxx spec doesn't reduce the size of the image file itself, and therefore it doesn't affect the bandwidth required when it is downloaded to the viewer's browser.

If you want to reduce the bandwidth, you actually have to resize the image file itself, save it as a new image file, and change the IMG SRC=xxx tag to point at the new image file.
