If you have Paintshop Pro or IrfanView(which is free) you can resize with those. Some pics may be a read only file so you may have to right click the photo and deselect read only in the photo properties. You can get IrfanView here http://www.irfanview.com/ . Hope this helps

As we frequently get questions about changing the size of and uploading images I'm making this thread a sticky so we can collect the questions and advice on that subject in one easy to locate spot.


btw. I added " / Help uploading images" to the original topic title.

you want the fastest and simplest method ? ,....
just email the desired picture to your self ,.... virtually every email program will allow you to adjust the image size before you send it ,
simply make it smaller - then send it to your self ,....
retrieve your new email ,....and rename it ,.....
when the forum ' browser ' asks for the file name ,...
just look for your newly created email photo - and submit it ----
