Jpeg (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a commonly used method of compression for photographic images. It is designed to minimize the size of the picture. If you wish to reduce the size of an image you can either reduce its dimensions and/or increase the compression factor.

Windows Software - e.g. PaintRight click on your picture. Go to edit. There you will find options for resizing/dimensions your picture. It will tell you the current pixels as width x height. e.g. 2048 x 1536 pixels. You cannot change the compression factor.

Image Editors & ConvertersYou can easily achieve much better results if you use a tool that allows you to fine control the compression level and or other jpeg options. There are a lot of tools out there:
- freeware (for example Irfanview, Picasa, GIMP, ...)
- commercial tools (Photoshop, AZImage - see reference...).

You can reduce the image size by either changing its format (increasing the compression in case of JPEG) or reducing its resolution. See the linked question.

How do you format a 2.0 GB SanDisk to download the pictures from it.?

You don't. If you do format it you will delete everything on it, including your pictures. I am assuming you have a USB-memory with pictures from a camera? If this is the case the pictures are saved in a lossless format and are usually not viewable by basic programs like Paint etc. Either way: Attach the memory stick to your computer. Go to "My computer" and then into the memory stick. If it does not appear there you may need to refresh the window and wait for the computer to find the memory or install the drivers for the memory so that the computer can see and access it. Once accessed you should find files and or folders. Find out where the pictures are, can be one large file containing several pictures. Google the file extension to find out what software you can use to access the file.
