Larry,

Assuming you are using Photoshop, you can go to picture size, define the size in inches, click the bottom box and then play with reducing one of the pixel boxes until the total pixels is the size you want.  Just remember that the real measurement of any picture is pixels x pixels, and the size in inches does not matter.  However, if you make it a standard inch by inch size you will be able to remember how to lower the pixel size easier.  The best result is to be found if you take the picture in camera Raw and after doing everything save it as a jpeg for the web.  Also, by using Raw, you can easily lighten the dark shadows, in case you would prefer that.
