560068 2007-06-17 08:24:00 I am looking for an easy to use image resizer for someone who is not a computer wiz. I use CS2 myself, but what he needs is something that wont confuse. jonboy (11457)
560069 2007-06-17 08:40:00 What operating system?

If it is XP, then I would recommend the Microsoft PowerToys for Windows XP (www.microsoft.com) and their Image Resizer application. It is only a tiny program (521 KB) and just adds a new right-click context menu option. If you right-click over an image file, you will see an option to resize image. Selecting that gives you the options of resizing that image from a small selection of commonly used sizes. It also gives you the option of picking a custom size if you wish. It will not touch the original image and just makes a resized copy. Good for retaining your original images untouched.

Simple to use and can resize in terms of quality/kb easily as well as dimension.

560074 2007-06-17 22:24:00 If you want to resize lots of images at once ( batch resize ) try Irfanview.
Anything you can do to one image in Irfanview it can also do as a batch process.
You can set it loose on a directory ( including sub-directories ) of images and it will do anything you want to all of them as a batch process..

Very handy for photographers that take thousands of pix..

[ the linux eqivalent of Irfanview is gThumb ]
