First, use a better image compression scheme. Try jpeg, it's nice.

That looks like one of those twist-lock connectors. It looks like it has two curved connectors and a center pin? Looks sort of like a NEMA L1 with a ground pin. Never seen one like that before.

EDIT: Actually, I think it's a Leviton ML2.

I use Image Resizer for Windows, because it is so easy to use.

If i write funny things, because english is not my native language, feel free to laugh. It is not always easy to find the right expression.

That looks nice does it allow you to chose the size of the file?

could you for example tell the program to scale it down to 1000KB?

Irfanview is a nice, free program that lets you scale your image re-sizing.

Back when I was a traveling carny, we had those all over the rides for lighting and some control systems of the rides.
