Haven't tried, but you are welcome to come try if you promise not to scare the bageezers out of the frog as your mouth comes toward their little bodies.

You need a graphics or photo editing program to resize.
No, I need a book to instruct me how to use one of the photo editing programs which I have. It is on my list, and I have only just begun to explorer photo manipulation.

Which one(s) do you have?

Photoshop elements is supposed to be good for the price.

If you have the MS one it may do everything you need. Just look in the menu of whichever one you have for a resize option and it should have a dialog for resizing by pixels, resolution, inches, etc. After you resize you probably will need to sharpen.

Kurt, have you tried Irfanview? I've found it to be the best I've tried for downsizing photos while retaining quality and picture size. These days, I upload with Nikon software, crop and tweak with Photoshop, and resize with Irfanview. Works great, but takes a lot longer!

Love the frog SJ! If you are using Photoshop (I have 7.0), for instance, you would pull up your photo, click on "Image" on the top tool bar, and then choose "Image Size" from the drop down menu. From there you can just put in what size you need it, and presto-chango, it's done.

I haven't tried that one but I don't know why you would need anything other than PS. :dunno:
