        You can do this in Photoshop (if you have it), Codekit, other programs but what you're probably looking for is something like this:

        Free Image Optimizer - Compress and resize photos

        This is the first site that came up in search but there might be better ones.
        *Disclaimer I've never used this service*

        I would start with 'best quality' and rinse and repeat until it gets down enough. Definitely make sure you check that it still looks good.

    Saving file in JPG will reduce your image size...

    It reduces the space that images take, not the size of the image.
