Guest name cool Posted December 28, 2010 ID:366541 Share Posted December 28, 2010 If it's time for change in an attempt to change my profile picture but I can not it! I think it's because of the size of the image. I wonder how can I reduce the size of images?.......................................M' Anti-M Free use.

MadMal Posted December 28, 2010 ID:366582 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Most image viewers will have a Resize option somewhere in the menu, I use XnView and it has a simple Resize as well as many other handy tools.If you intend to do bulk resizing then PicResizer might be what you want.If you want a screencapture program that will also resize, crop, add text etc to any image then FastStone Capture (free version) is great. It's portable so just run it from a folder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildman424 Posted December 28, 2010 ID:366613 Share Posted December 28, 2010 There's a powertoy for your XP that works nicely without the need for any third party software PowerToys add fun and functionality to the Windows experience.

MadMal Posted December 30, 2010 ID:367527 Share Posted December 30, 2010 Pretty much as it says, just select the new size and drag the image or images (Ctrl+Click or Ctrl+Shift) to the PicResizer face. By default the new image will be called the original name with small at the beginning. EG: Baby Photo becomes small Baby PhotoIt is handy if you have uploaded images from your camera to your computer and there are some/many that you want to email to family and friends, the original size will probably take an eternity to upload and send so reducing the size is a good idea. This will decrease the quality but for happy snaps it is usually good enough. Granny is just interested in the smile in the photo not the format of the image There is also the online Pic Resize (no relation) that can resize single or batch images and also lets you save as JPG or PNG or GIF but that will be slower and depend on your feelings on using online resources.
