It came out at 16.2k and looked virtually identical. I saved the image, opened it in Irfanview and saved it as a jpg at 90% setting. It came out at 16.2k and looked virtually identical.

Pictures with lots of different colors and/or complexly-shaped colored areas in them often don't compress very well. For reducing/compressing pictures, get IrfanView -- quite adequate function for a much more than adequate price (it's free). For most of the other things most people might want to do with pictures, either Adobe Photoshop Elements or ULead PhotoImpact is more than sufficient for under $100.
