David, just about any image processing program, including GIMP and Photoshop, will let you resize and compress to fit within the limits.
With GIMP there is an add on called RIOT that lets you say how big you want the file to be and it computes a compression to fit that size. In most cases you'll find that a size around 1 megapixel will let you keep JPEG quality above 90%, but it becomes a matter of trial and error to find the best compromise.
Here's your 10MB image shrunk about as far as possible while keeping quality above 90%, so it is reduced to 20% of full size.
