I would like to post a pic but I don't know how to resize it from over 1MB+ to the 400-600KB size. I've seen great pictures I've had to scroll up, down and side to side to view. I assume this is the reason to resize? Any other GURUs advice is welcome. BUT! type slow so I can understand. Thanks. David.

The advice received below is good. Good digital images require mega pixels, and most posted here (including mine) are much less. So the picture needs to include only the important material. If it is a image of plowing in Nebraska, it should show the landscape. If it is a picture of a broken bolt, it should not, thus taking the image is the first step. Most cameras I am familiar with have several settings (just like a Farmall reading the manual is key) that adjust pixel count, or purpose. Setting the "quality" of the image to Web publishing", or 640X480, or Low resolution, or 600-800K file size, will set the image to the usable size to begin with.
Placing the Photo in the appropriate gallery to the left on this site will usually automatically resize a reasonable picture.

For high resolution, the most common way is to direct Email the person needing the image. Even then they may have file size restrictions on their inbox. Ask first! Sending a CD in the mail is the assured method of sending great high res material. A well focused and stable image of 1.5mb in jpg format will make a reasonable 8X10 print. I use about 25mb on my poster size prints and an 8 megapixel camera. When resizing larger or smaller two rules persist: It will be imposible to add detail by increasing the pixel count on a image that exists. AND It will degrade the image to reduce its pixel count. These may not make a visible difference if the image is printed on small paper, but ifd enlarged, they sure do. Good luck, Jimn

You have to resize it in a paint program like Adobie, Photoshop, InfranView, etc.

In Adobie you can also save the image in several formats. If you can save it as a JPG file and not a BMP file. JPG is a type of BMP but is more compressed and not quite as sharp of an image due to the fact that there is not as large a color spectrum to use.

There use to be web based programs that would change the size but I havent checked in a long time to see if they are still there.

If you have trouble with it then you can email me the image and I will resize it for you.

Microsoft "Paint" is an easy one. If I open a photo, then right-click on it, there is an option from the drop-down menu that says "open with", and if you left-click on "paint" your picture will be in that program. Then left-click the "image" tab at the top, and left-click on "stretch/skew". There will be horizontal and vertical percentages there. Downsize the same percent for each, and then when you close "Paint" it will ask you if you want to save the change, and click "yes". (You may want to make a "copy" of your picture first, and monkey with that, rather than screw up your original. When I"ve tried to downsize pictures, I use conservative percentages so I don"t go too small, and just re-do a bit smaller if need be, until it"s where I want it. May not be the simplest, but it"s the only way I know, and works well for me.

When I resize I use the pixel scale and make the long border 700 pixels, the program should keep the proportion. ie if it 1400x800 resizing will make it 700x400.
