Default Pasting web pictures into Word 2003

I am working with Word 2003, and trying to paste several pictures, one at a
time, from web pages into my documents. (documents are study notes, pics are
non-copyrighted) Problem is, the pasted pictures always show up in my
documents as being around 10 to 12 inches wide. I like to view and edit the
documents using print view, but these pasted pictures are far bigger than the
page. Is there any way to change the default size for pasting a picture so
it can be 6.5 inches wide?

I have tried pasting the full size picture, then using a macro to change it
to the smaller width. I used the macro recorder to set this up on the first
picture. But for the subsequent pictures I got a runtime error, and am
pretty much stuck at that point.

Thanks in advance,
JP
