Here is what I believe to be my easiest way to re size in XP..A simple "search" on this forum would have told you this!

there are online tools also. i use picasa. i set the picture size to 640x480 or something like that and it fits right.

Go to Photobucket.com sign up for free. upload your picture and post the image link. Easiest way I can think of.

Pieman - Figluvah advice works excellent and its simple.

I run XP as well  with the updates on this old machine.
Download the power tools and it click it to self install  -
Upload your picture to hardrive right from your camera as is.
Right click your picture and click resize -small/medium/large - time it takes is mere seconds to resize.
You can rename file to the name of fig just add  .jpg at end of file if you choose.

It makes file size under 1mb and will easily upload to forum as a thumbnail ,the reader then simply clicks on your picture to blow it up.

Plus it saves Jon the moderator of this forum a lot of space .


I used Photobucket and this way is faster and easier for XP systems in my humble opinion.

Very simple to use after you change the size just drag and drop the pic onto your desktop or into a folder 1 2 3 done.
