What program within XP (out of the box) Pro can I use to make a picture
smaller. My digital camera will go to 2048 x 1280, that is to big to send
via email.

thx,

Click to expand...
=================================
Two possibilities:

1) If you open a folder that contains image files,
you should find an option in your Picture Tasks
pane to E-mail...or...right click an image and
choose...Send to / Mail Recipient...you should
get a dialog box that asks if you wish to resize
the images.

2) Simple solution...go to the following link and
download and install: ImageResizer.exe

http://tinyurl.com/36n

Then you can open any folder that contains
images and you will have an option to resize.
Just right click the selected image files and
choose Resize Pictures. You can select one
image or a whole group.

The program will place the resized copies in
the folder with your originals.

BTW...when resizing if you go to...Advanced
Button / Custom...and enter 640 in each field...
that will be a good size for e-mail purposes.
