Zipping JPEG

[uplusd]

Hi,

I have a folder of 21 JPEGs totaling about 65MB. When I right click the folder and compress it the compressed zip file is about the same size as the folder. Can you not compress JPEGs or something? How can I get these pictures smaller for e-mailing without decreasing the resolution?

JPEG is a lossy compressed format. The only way to reduce them further is to remove additional information from your files.

What MisterMe said.

Stuffit claims it can compress Jpegs, but I haven't tried it out.
