And I am sorry that work blocks irfanview - a great program.
Alternately you use a Mac (or other OS?) plaform at work which I am surprised doesn't have built in editing SW given the marketing.

My MSPaint at work can only save BMP files. which would end up being megs instead of hundreds of K.
We aren't allowed to install third party software, nor are we allowed to hook our laptops or PDA's up to the network. There's no open wireless nearby that I can piggyback either. I have a laptop running OpenBSD, another one running Mac OSX (both with GIMP, an awesome image manip. tool), and several WiFi and ethernet-capable PDAs.
Anyhow, it doesn't matter anyways because the full res photo isn't that bad. It just so happens that with Blogger, there are no thumbnails, only scaled down images. I might have pulled it down to 800x600 or so, but that still would be a ridiculously ginormous file to be used in a 200 pixel-wide space on my blog.
