I use the Image Size. I then save the image as JPEG, setting the quality setting of 8 or 9 so as to arrive at a file size of between 100 and 200 kb. If the image is vertical (portrait), the procedure is the same except that I set the height to 600 pixels, which means that the width becomes around 400 pixels, and so the file size becomes somewhat smaller than with a horizontal image.
