# crop

depends on your program, really, but they're the most common names for the options you're after

# you didn't say that
you wish to optimise an animation? remove frames, reduce colours, disable dithering and progressive loading, and if you're using imageready turn on "lossy" to at least 20%

# Assuming tattyshop is being used
scale, as scaling reduces the dpi or the image, or at least it looks that way to me!

I had said you can resize the image or scale, but I would not use ...

# scale?
never heard of that one... reducing the DPI is mostly irrelevant in a web image though - you could change it from 300 to 100dpi, but if you haven't turned off "constrain proportions" then it'll just make the "physical" dimensions 3 times bigger
