Forums > Help! > making tiny jpegs - one for the geeks

ok, heres the deally oh.

i wanna make a jpeg small enough to upload to hop as an avater. I know its possible, if you download a small jpeg its easily small enough, but i cant make one

never thought id have reason to curse photoshoop, but no mattter how low you set the res or how small you make the image, photoshop attaches something to the jpeg that takes it over the limit.

so my question is, bearing in mind i exclusivly work on a mac, how can i strip this superflous data out/what other app can i use to make em?

Ive had a look at the jpeg file in plaintext and all i find is a little 'this was made using adobe photoshop' comment line. surley that shouldent make it too big?
