Title: Simple Image Resizer tool for XP
Post by: AlsHobieOutback on June 19, 2008, 03:44:23 PM

While looking for new methods of getting pic's ready for upload to the site, came across a nifty little tool for XP that Microsoft made for resizing pictures.  Its FREE and available here:

Look on the right hand side for the download link:

Image Resizer
Download   ImageResizer.exe

Once you install this tool, its so easy!  Just highlight one or more pictures with your mouse, and right click on them, choose resize!  Gives you different options on the size too.

I will try it this weekend. Thanks in advance, I'm not exactly gifted with the puter. This will help me when I e-mail, cause it never works; file too big.

Here's a very good (and free) file viewer that lets you resize, get rid of red eye, and bunch of other features.
