The image in comment #1 is 1,073,782 bytes at both its original, full size and at my scaled-down size. Anyone know how to reduce both the dimensional and byte size of a linked image?

The fastest way I know is to use the reduce options in Photobucket. I don’t know if there is an HTML way, but I will be interested if anyone comes up with one..

You mean, load it in, scale it, and host it somewhere?

Or just using HTML tags?

I'm not aware of any way without a photo editor of some kind, possibly MS Paint even, to change the physical size and resolution(number of bytes or pixels/inch). Also the various formats available for pics offer different compressions, eg, JPG's will typically yield greater compression than, say, PNG format. FWIW, PhotoShop can do it all in a matter of a few minutes. THEN you would need to host it somewhere and create a link to the newly hosted pic.

Just for grins, a radically compressed version:
