How big do you want to get it?
A 35KB JPEG can be quite a large image...
 
Half of Turfmoore's size would suffice...but it seems I need to reduce to one hundreth of a size to get it to 35KB

Still, I'm guessing it's a digital photo. I regularly get them down to around 35KB (not sure exactly). So it can't be that hard.

What software are you using?

Yup, digital....Micrografx. Normally this is sweet as, but hey.... I've just seen Spurs score half a dozen, so it can wait.
 
As for the last post....you are not a model Yellow fever Citizen, Kane.

Never heard of Micrografx...

If you were on a mac, I would suggest GraphicConverter. Dunno anything about that Windows thing (GIMP maybe?)

Two new Phoenix fans. Not sure that they'll get to many games. 
Profile pic. Should you be interested. Lakhsen, on the right, lost touch with him.
Mohammed, on the left, I'm still in touch with. He's now living in Agadez, Niger. More focused on his animals now as tourism has dried up. Is active with a co-op promoting local goods, leather work and bijouterie, into Europe.

To renew this thread...i had the "pleasure" to visit Broken Hill the other week.  It�s near the south Australia/NSW border. Over 1000km from Sydney and 500km from Adelaide.  To say its isolated is a bit of an understatement.

Just caught up with a mate of mine who's gone overseas for the summer, he's going to try and get a photo with his Retro Ricki in India

Quality.  I found this statue in Adelaide.  Attempted to climb it and dress him in my fever top (without successful) for a "who are ya" pose. He would have fitted right in at the ring.
