The picture are all about 230K, which is WAY too big. I am not an
expert at web publishing and sorts, so can anyone help as to how I
can compress the size of these pics to a reasonable size (50-75K?).
Thanks!

Do you have a program which can save JPG files?  If not, grab a copy of
Paint Shop Pro on the web.  When you save as a jpg, you should get a
dialogue box which lets you choose the quality of the final image.  The
lower the quality, the lower the file size.  Choose a reasonable quality
(I usually use 50-60% compression) and save.  Reopen the file and check
if the quality and file size are where you want them.  If they're not,
resave the original file with different compression.  Never resave a JPG
file as a JPG, because that will only increase file-size while further
decreasing quality (because the new file will try to save the artifacts
introduced in the first one, while adding even more artifacts).
