# Not sure if it'll work for v 5
Export JPEG optimiser, and have a play around with the compression value, etc.

# mmm, corsets
but some advice - pictures larger than 280px wide wont get front paged; pics over 200kb shouldn't be posted directly to the board (though yours isn't as large as that); when posting pictures from MSN, remove the characters after the file extension (beginning with a question mark) as this will enable file caching and will make the board load quicker when you refresh

# do you mean do i think you'll win the challenge?
the statistics are against you - 1 pic in hundreds, but it all depends on who's judging it that week
