I use Photo Deluxe 4.0
When I save the picture as a JPEG I resize the picture. But I resize it to a 640 pixel by (whatever size the pictures ratio give it) 480 pixel.
Get a photo manipulation program. Adjust the size but instead of inches X inches, do pixel X pixel and make the top demension 640pixels. Then change the side dimension to pixels, it will know what amout of pixels to use based on the photo you are saving.
The 2 meg picture you have will now turn out to a 45-60K size photo.
