FYI: Resizing digital photos for posting

I've gotten really good help from you Wallies when needed. As a homeowner I mostly lurk, but am always learning. Thanks to you all for that.

I noticed that many images are just too big for posting. An easy way to resize images if you have Windows XP is to download this little utility from Microsoft, install it, and then you can right-click on one or more image files and you'll see a new choice: "Resize Pictures". That'll bring up a dialog where you can choose the size (800x600 is a good choice) and it will create copies of the photos at the reduced resolution, all ready for posting.

Very handy, I use it all the time.

Go to this website:

and download the tool called "Image Resizer" (download link is on right side of page).

Hope that helps-

Tom
