and i want to reduce those files to 5 kb ...( without any resoulutio disturb )

is there any utility in linux if yes please guide me how to use ?

Well, jpegs are already compressed so you'll be hard pressed to make them 6 or 7 times smaller. GIMP is the utility of choice for manipulating image files, but you'll lose quality each time you save a jpeg - it's a lossy format.

As said, jpeg is one of those lousy compression alrogythms, just like any *peg thing, including mp3 and many more. Each time you save a jpeg file again, you lose a bit more, and more, and more, until your image ends being a white thing with a lot of black noise (for this you have to save it lots of times). Alternatively, you can crunch it directly by setting the quality while saving to 1%. Some programs instead of quality, has a parameter called "compression", which is not really compression but "how many info are you willing to lose?".

In that case, level it up to 99% to destroy your image.

To sum up, what you want is impossible (a house with all the accessories and commodities of the modern life, but that can fit into the space of a tent. You want a space saving of around 700%, which is by al means impossible, unless you are willing to lose some data, might it be damaging the image quality, or might it be by losing resolution).

thanks

GIMP. You can scale the image and change the resolution, and select the level of compression - the more you compress the smaller the resultant file and the lower the quality.
