How to reduce the size of Images(JPEGs)

[Sridhar Panatula]

Hello all,
When I upload pictures to Google(picasa) picture size is autmatically
reduced.
I would like to do that in Csharp. Is there an API to do that?

Thanks in Advance

But you should not even be using .jpeg files at all because it is a lossy
file format and each time the file is edited and saves the quality gets
worse and worse.

As a best practice you should be using the Portable Network Graphic
"loss-less" image file format (.png) which has been created specifically for
the web several years ago and is now supported everywhere by most software,
services and all current browsers. If you are getting the .jpg files from a
camera resave them immediately to .png.
