This is a simple pic and file resizer. I believe this was the one that was up before....

Yes that is a good program and it was posted before.  Thanks for putting it back

Will this program let you set the file size you want?  It would be nice if you could just tell it you want the photo to be 128kb or less.  That way you wouldn't have to try it several times to see what size the new photo is going to end up.  all these programs focus on photo size not kb size.

Side note:  do we still have spell check here?

Good point Jeremy,that would be nice if the total file size would show.I just keep changing 'till it works.

This is another place to get resizers and such.Just be careful what you download.I just got Photoscape.

thats what I do.., but the other way would be better.. Why hasn't anyone thought of that..  Maybe you should design one..

One of the nicest picture management programs, which is also free come from the Google Page called Picasa.  I own Photoshop and a couple of others and use Picasa 99% of the time.

It will find every image in your computer and show them to you, you can click on them and send them to a file to be resized (to any size of your choice if I remember correctly), allows you to post to a web for sharing (need a google email though--no charge)  You can also do many editing features, etc.  and it is FREE!

Dave,

when you say size do you mean mega bites?  If so thats the program I need.

Yes it resizes the mega pixels of a picture.  We almost take pictures a way too high resolution and cannot up load them to most internet applications, this will "resize" them to the smaller size that uploads quickly.  I could bring my notebook and demonstrate if you would like next Tuesday at the meeting.  Let me know probably best with pm as I may not get back in here for a few days.
