What the Best Software for Re-sizing Pics??

[ghrousseau]

I have a Sony Vaio computer and a Sony Cybershot Camera. What is a good free, downloadable software to re-size my pictures?? I havn't figured out how to Re-size pictures to post yet.

Thanks

MSPaint comes with the Windows and you can use it to resize.
Open your image in Paint then click on "Image" at the top then select "Stretch and Skew" then simply put the percentage you want. Example it defaults to 100% if you want the picture half the size put 50% in both the Horizontal and vertical boxes and click OK then save your picture.

If you have a copy of Office, Microsoft Photo Editor works great, I don't think it installs by default, but if you have the CD, it's easy to add on.

Try Easy Thumbnails. Its free shareware and it will do singles or batch jobs. Very easy to use.

Just a note about resizing images for posting in the web: the typical dimensions for posting (and check what Jesse has now, I haven't looked at that lately) are something like 600 or 640 pixels on the longest dimension. If you have a landscape -style picture, that means it's about 8 inches across when the monitor shows it at 72 ppi.
