If you're looking for a free program for the sole purpose of downsizing the "file" size and not the actual size, this will suit your needs.

I just want to cut a picture down and post it to see if anybody can tell me what it is. I do know but just want to see what others think.......will try the above link...thanks...........................................mike.
 
Mike.. i recomend this program to everyone... easy as 1 2 3...

i have a windows program that works awesome.. affectivley you right click on the pic and select resize and then what size you want it to be and it does it for you.. works great with lots of pics too..

lemme see if i can find it..

here is the link to the program... its by microsoft and its free..

Photobucket.com

go to photobucket.com and just register for free, upload the pics you want to post to your "album" that you create, choose (check mark) which uploaded pics you want to use for the post and at the bottom of the screen check mark "generate html and img code". scroll down to where it says "IMG images for message boards" hi-lite all in the box and copy ( after hi-liting hold down the Ctrl key and press the C key ). then just put your cursor in the AZ posting box under your text and paste ( hold down the Ctrl key and press the V key ). this will paste the generated code into your post so the pics will show up under the text or actually anywhere you put them. preview your post to make sure it looks good then send your post. i've found this to be the best way to show pics since the size limits are much more relaxed and there's no picture limit.
