Haven't seen this for linux yet but here some instructions for using gimp. Open gimp, choose to open image, under image on the toolbar choose scale image. You can choose percentage or different options here but pixel size is defaul option. Choose 800x600 or whatever size you like and then click scale. At this point your image should shrink. Save as image_different_name.jpg so that you don't overright you original. Very easy to do! You can use just about any image software on linux to do the same thing but gimp is almost always loaded plus it can be used on other *nix such as solaris or freebsd. Best of luck.
