<p>[QUOTE="Aquitaine, post: 2536079, member: 602"][USER=16099]@MandyNS[/USER] Here's another option, if you're using your computer.....it pretty much doesn't matter which version WINDOWS you're on....it's all pretty similar!</p><p><br /></p><p>The Program "PAINT" is built in to Windows..Under "Windows Accessories".

Make sure the Aspect Ratio Box IS checked.....then to start try the size 640 in the top box....it will automatically put the correct figure in the lower box....then check at the bottom of the PAINT window & BE SURE the size of the image is reduced to under 1000 kb or 1 MB....then click FILE again when you're happy and click SAVE AS if you want to retain your ORIGINAL IMAGE and RENAME it.....AND REMEMBER WHERE YOU SAVE IT!!!! I 'think' I hit everything you need to do to resize on your computer with the on-board program!!!
