I'm looking for a program that will let you select a signal JPG to compress. I'm wanting smaller file size not a resized JPG. Any help.

The gime will offer it, but this will make the image have less quality. I think if you compress any JPG file, it will decrease in quality though.

JPG is lossy and each time you re-save it, it looses quality so be careful.

XAT (http://www.xat.com/) have nice compression/optimization programs. You can find my bit on it at Optimizing JPGs (http://www.webdevelopersnotes.com/graphics/optimizing_jpgs.php3) and if you are interested in optimization check When to use gifs and when to use jpgs (http://www.webdevelopersnotes.com/graphics/when_to_use_gifs_when_to_use_jpgs.php3).
Hope this helps.
