Happy New Year all. Hope every one is doing great and that your projects are comming along nice.

I need help. I need to start my resto thread but my pics are to large. the program i have is a POS and I can only crop the pics. IAnybody know of a program I can download? Free is always better. Thanks.

Microsoft Office Picture Manager is what I use. It's the one that came on both my computers so it was basically free, or I guess you could say it was already paid for. All I do is click edit pictures and then select compress pictures for web pages.

paint is easy for simple stuff like resizing. Tons of free stuff on the web. YOu can also get older software via,

http://www.oldversion.com/

I think another is called olddownloads.com, but I couldn't find it.

I use Paint which is in your accessory program file.(Start-programs-accessories-paint-stretch/skew) load a photo and use stretch/skew to reduce it. Save it as a reduced photo and download. Hope this helps. toolman

I use GIMP. It's free, available for either Microshaft or Linux users. '

Yup. Paint will work too. Google around, there are tutorials on how. Most programs allow you to scale the picture to a setting, and the other axis will follow. In other words, I scale the horizontal axis to either 800 or 600, and allow the vertical to follow suit.

Another way is to NOT post them here, but LINK them from here to your Flickr or Photobucket site, etc.

FYI..... photobucket.com.... dont have to resize and get pretty much those same sizes of pics as you just posted. You just have to sign up for a free account, load pics to it.. then use the link it gives...

just another option for you.

Picasa is free from Google but takes a little time to figure out. Pretty easy though.
