I am trying to download some layouts I made for a calendar. They have to be less than 4 MB. I have one that is 6.47 MG in .jpeg form. Is there a way to make it smaller (even if it is in a different format)?

TIA! ;-)

Are you trying to download or upload the pages? In Photoshop, you can got to image and then image size and scale the pic down. Such as if it is a 12x12 you can change it to 8x8 and that will shrink the file size. You can also change the resolution from 300 down to 100 and that will shrink it some too. in the dialog box it should tell you an approxiamate file size and you can adjust until itis the right size. then save it as a jpeg "file name resize" so you know it is the smaller file and then you should be able to upload with no problems.
