The objective is to resize photos to 640x480 because most photos are too large and cause frustrating emailing problems. If you don't have a photo editing program, or you have one and don't know how to use it, here's the easiest way to resize photos. It's a Microsoft program you can download for free that works with Windows XP (Vista users see below). Simply follow these steps: Click here to download program Click "Run", and follow the instructions Once it is loaded on your computer, all you will have to do to resize a photo is right-click on the icon of the photo (you don't even have to open it), select "Resize Pictures", and choose "Small 640x480". The program will make a copy of the photo for you that is the smaller size, and your original photo will remain unchanged. Your new photo will be in the same folder, and it's label will be the same as the original, with the added word "(small)". (Note: Don't look for a program to click on to resize a photo; there isn't one. You access the program by right-clicking on the photo icon and selecting "Resize Pictures".) For Windows Vista users, there is a free program that should work just as well by VSO Software Click Here to download For more information about this Vista program, visit VSO Software Photo Upload optionIf you are having problems and can't get the resizing program to work, you can resize and email photos all in one step without downloading any software. The only problem with this option is if your internet connection is very slow, and you are trying to send multiple large photos all at once, it will take a long time to transmit. |
