In order to reduce file size, Steve must use a photo editor to optimize the image files. This involves compressing the image and reducing its quality to some extent, but still maintaining an acceptable level of detail and resolution for the intended use. Tagging, replacing, and restructuring would not necessarily reduce file size.
