The easiest/fastest way is to make your photo the size you want, then go to File and "Save for web". You can then save it as a .jpg (best for photos) or .gif (best for text/drawings) and adjust the quality of the file until it fits the file size you want. The file size is shown on the bottom left.

This is for Photoshop 7. Not sure about other versions.

I think I finally figured it out, only problem is the colors are not as bright as the original.

Any suggestions?

Well, I don't know what the original looked like. If you want to send the original to me at xtal@cox.net, I'll reduce it for you.
