Depending what package you are using but I use psp and if you go into options when you select save then you can change the compression. Mind you I usually have mine on 1 which is the highest quality and dont have any problems but changing this to 10 for example will reduce the file size.

Hi Mary, make sure you have the resolution at 150 dpi and that you've flattened any layers. I use Photoshop and there's a similar compression option like Amanda detailed above for PSP.

Sorry can't help with Gimp, have you tried googling it to see if there are any tutorials available?
