I know that a lot of you have problems with resizing photos for the web. And with the decreased file size allowed by BTD now, I thought I would post a link for a free image resizer software. If you want to post pics and always have difficulty with the size of them, I would suggest trying this.

PIXresizer Software Free Shareware

It is gotten several awards and is supposed to be easy to use. Here is a quote about what it does:

PIXresizer

What is it:
PIXresizer is a photo resizing program to easily create web and email friendly versions of your images with reduced file sizes. The reduced files are saved in a different folder, so your original images are not altered at all. PIXresizer offers several different resizing methods to choose from and can automatically recognize image sizes to calculate the best fit. In addition, it can convert between image formats (JPEG, GIF, BMP, PNG and TIFF), rotate images, convert to grayscale and resize multiple images in batch mode. A great companion for webmasters and digital photographers.

Options/Features
simple four-step workflow
easy 'Apply recommended' option to make it even more user friendly
works with single files as well as with multiple files all at once
option to convert between graphics formats (.bmp, .gif, .jpg, .png, and .tif)
can be used to create thumbnails (takes one move on a slider)
smart ratio calculation (image proportions can be overruled by the user)
error logging (checks for corrupted images a. o.)

Thanks, Rhonda! I REALLY need this!

You're very welcome BTW, I just downloaded it, installed it and already resized a photo. (Just to be sure it worked.) It took me all of three seconds to resize a photo. Read the ReadMe file (1 page) for easy how-to-do-it text.

THANK THANK YOU!!!! I downloaded it in a snap. I am constantly having sizing issues with posting pics here, this will be a great tool!

DL... you rock!

just use photobucket it works

this is easier

For those running Windows XP, try checking out Windows PowerToys and specifically a PowerToy named "ImageResizer". It's a very small application. You simply select the file(s) you want to resize and right click and then select "Resize Pictures". Then select your options from the pop up screen.

It's very easy and FREE with no shareware notices.
