I just had a look at the MS Office Picture Manager, and with its fixed options it's very limited. I would try out IrfanView as mentioned earlier in this thread, you can find it at http://www.irfanview.com.
When editing your pics, make sure you adjust light, contrast and such before resizing the picture. and when you save the finished pic, use the Save as... option. Then you'll find a slider to adjust the compression, experiment with that and save several files with different names to find the compression that best suits you. BTW, the desired compression setting may vary for each file.
