Next time someone needs help with photo resizing, point them here.
Something as simple as resizing a picture can be quite the task for someone that either lack the knowledge or software to do so. Yea if someone ask you about making a picture on thier PC bigger or smaller, you can point them to a few places that offer free software. You might even cause more confusion, now you may have to show them how to install and use the program.
One easy way to get your Pics the size you want is to use a simple web based pic resizer. Picresize.com does just that. You just upload the picture, pick a size you want, and download the finished resized version of that picture.
Simple
Yea I thought so, Ive actually used the site and recommended it to people that I thought would get too confused if I tried to explain the new free Photoshop express, Paint.net or Microsoft’s picresizer (which are all excellent choices if you choose to use them.

I would still trust Photoshop with a more clear scale engine than that of a website which is probably using GD or Imagemagick to resize. Websites are usually optimized for speed, not clarity.

Nice find. For some reason my wife has a really hard time resizing or cropping photos on the PC. I try to explain how, but it never seems to end well. I think, I’ll just have her try this next time.

Nice find. I use Photoshop for this purpose, but I’m having breakfast in a few hours with a gal who uploads full-size images on her blog. It REALLY slows her page loading time. I’m gonna turn her on to this. Thanks!
