Resizing JPG File
Hi All,

Just updating my profile and wanted to stick an image up for my Avatar thingy.

Anyone got any clues on how to resize a JPG to 75x75 pixels. Freeware would be useful.

TIA

Stu

You have a couple of option, if your using MSoffice 2003 there is a utility with that called Picture Manager, this can be used to resize the photo. If you don;t find anything let me know and you can e-mail it to me and I'll re-size it for you if you like.

Thumbs up
Just use MS paint which comes with Windoz...

Load the picture into MS Paint,
Grab the picture, at the lower right corner,
Then, with the mouse button depressed, move the corner, resizing.
Keep an eye on the lower lext of the window. You'll see numbers srinking as you move the mouse up and left. When it gets to 75*75, your there.

Don't forget to save as JPG.

It wont work in Paint, this will crop the picture, i.e. re-sizing the canvas it is on rather than re-sizing the actual picture. At least it does on my PC, though mine has been known to be round the bend.

Use Photo Resizer - it's free and very easy to use! Also it is very good for reducing the number of pixels if your file size is too big.
