Help with my pics, I suck with computers

Post by Punu »

Anyone know how I can re size my images? When I post a pic on a site from webshots, it comes out huge on any site. I hate it....

Picasa (http://www.picasa.com) is great (and free) software from google that manages your photos and lets you do some editing, cropping, resizing, emailing, etc.

Also, if you us Flickr (http://www.flickr.com) it makes several sizes for you on uploading, and makes it easy to share on other sites. For instance, on this page, click the "All Sizes" button above the picture to see the various sizes.

LOL.

Just use the paint program that comes with windows. Go to sketch/skew and keep reducing by 50% till its at a decent size. Then upload the picture again.

Not free though. Plus Picasa organizes your photos, and doesn't alter the original file when you make edits.
