One of the program you could try is PIXresizer :)

right down to basics: use Paint, i havnt in a looong while but i believe it can save as jpg, and definitely can resize (but looses quality fairly badly)

I use "screenshooter".. downloaded over a year ago, forget from where. Anyway, it usually pushes out 800x600 shots well over 100k, so I just open them in MS Paint, resize about 1% for the heck of it, then save and it drops it to under 50k.

There are several screen capture programs - such as GrabClipSave available [url=http://www.simviation.com/fsutilities_gen3.htm]
here[/url] , Multigrab , etc ...

These programs will allow multi captures & send them to a folder of your choice.

To reduce file sizes without any real reduction in noticeable quality open them in Irfanview & save as -

Play about a little & you'll soon find few 800 wide images need to be over 60K

I use GrabClipSave. It keeps the file sizes low (under 120K for me). I use InfranView to crop/resize the images.

I tried multigrab but it was a bit unreliable.  FSScreen and PixResizer are what I use (recommended to me by Stratobat) and I have no complaints!
