Generally .... most computers are set to a resolution of 800pixels horizontal by 600 pixels vertical. any picture larger than that may be a waste of band width. If you want more resolution then crop in on the specific area you want to show the fine detail.
I resized your picture to 800X600 pixels (full screen for most computers) and used a medium file compression. As you turn down the file size in jpg format you will compress the number of colours used to make the picture. for a lot of pics you can compress a long way before it gets objectionable. Of course this is totally subjective.

Noel,
I am 77 years old and have only had a computer for about 2 years. Needless to say, I have had a lot of trouble learning to use it and it's down right heart breaking to see 10 year old kids that are more proficient than myself. The only redeeming factor is that I knew how to type since high school days way back in the 40's
Just to show you how dumb I am, I could understand most of your reply and the rest might as well have been Chinese. I can speak English or course and I am almost fluent in German, now I must learn computer. The best of luck with whatever you ae building.

Hello Bob:
All your questions can be aswered from experienced people on this list. My suggestion is to ask just one thing at a time. We'll take it easy with you. I am going to make the claim that I taught the World's oldest CAD (computer aided design) user. Bill Harrold, retired highest level Lockheed Aeronautical engineer. He worked at their spy satellite plant in San Jose. At 84 or 85 I set up a computor and started teaching him CAD drawing in his hanger. He became a 2D expert. Bill redesigned the wing of the Wag-Aero Pacer one of our guys is building. One feature is that the ribs were constructed from square aluminum tubing. The needed tubing wasn't available, so Bill designed, and I built, a bench top rolling mill. Round tubing goes in one end and squared tubing with rounded corners comes out the other. Attached is a pic of Bill with the rolling mill and another pic of it close up. We lost Bill 18 months, I sure miss him. He was proof a guy his age could still learn the new tricks. Ask away Bob!

Bob:
My congratulations to you. my mother started taking lessons on the computer at age 74 so I have some idea of what you are up against.
You have reached an age where you don't need to worry about the hows or the whys as long as you can benefit some entertainment from it.
A couple of years ago I went back to technical school. I was amazed at how many things I could do that classmates who were thirty years younger than me could not do. So much for the idea of getting a teenager to program your VCR /;^)
Keep on trying anything else new that comes along.

Remember Bob, the List as a whole is a far greater resource that I will ever be, don't be afraid to use it. I try to help where I can.

Bob,
Along another line for computer "know how"... Almost all Jr. colleges offer very cheap classes for seniors (age 55+ or so)...
I offer a lot at Tarrant County College ( see the links in my sig.)
The classes are 20 hours long over 5 days and cover many subjects...
The classes only cost $10 each for a lab fee... The state provides
some funding and my instructors and myself are volunteers...
Also check with any local "senior centers", many also offer classes...
