See if this will help you. 600 x 450 should be the right size.http://www.resize2mail.com/

when I want to resize real quick, I just do it in windows paint, just open pic , then go to image, then hit stretch/skew, then change 100% to something smaller. resave and your done.

Thats a pretty cool website Rich. I just use my Kodak software that came with my camera to do the resizing. Most computers should have a picture viewer in the software someplace, if you don't have anything else I would use that or the above mentioned website.

http://www.microsoft.com/windo....mspxeasiest solution by far. scroll down and on the left side, select 'image resizer'.once installed, you simply rig click on any picture on your computer and select the newly added "resize" from the menu. it has 3 preset sizes (240x320, 480x640, and 1040x1240?) or you can select 'custom' and put any size you want into the boxes!...i'd try some of the other 'powertoys'i recommend -powercalc-slideshow-tweakUI-cleartype tuner if you have a laptop.enjoy!

I just started using Picasa, the free photo organizing and editing software from Google. I highly recommend it. It's free and has lots of great features including easy ways to reduce your photo size. The only gripe I have about it is it sorts your photos by date, but not by file date, the date of the folder the photo is contained in. Hopefully they will change that in the future. Check it out at http://picasa.google.com/index.html

i use and highly recommend picasa (2) as well.I agree with your one complaint, Justin. But i think their intention was to simply store your pics in one folder and then assign groups. It actually goes by the oldest date of a pic in a folder and not the folder date. So if all the pics were in the same folder it would sort them by picture date....i think.
