in paint go..Image-->stretch/skew-->decrease vertical and horizontal to 50%

If you are using a Windows OS pc then it's extremely simple. Go here and download the Tweakui addons and you're good to go.
The above link is for XP, but it is also available for all other MS OS's.

icmag has a built in pic resize. When you upload here it will auto re size for you.
I do use Digital Photo Navigator most of the time .

Anyone know the widest I can use without getting that "this image has been resized" bit? 800?
I like using photoshop if it's installed (go to file>save for web) It lets you resize really quick and lower the quality setting so you can fit more pics your albums.

The image size and dimensions limit can be found here, for normal members it is 1024x1024

IrfanView is a free shareware with easy picture resizing ..pics seem to upload easier for me if I resize them first..the IC resizer has been crashing on me lately
There's a ton of free apps out there just for this purpose. If you have XP, like mentioned above, use tweakui from the XP Power Tools set. There's a clone for windows 7 available there somewhere.
These tools are nice, since you can feed them an entire directory structure, and everything is done automagically.

The magic numbers I use are no more than 800x1000 to have it fit auto without the resize caption at the top of photos
In photoshop elements I save through >file and then click >save for web
I change the first box to jpeg and the second box to 20% to get small files with ok quality. The third box down is for the resize part. I change which ever number is bigger down to a number that fits- if the horizontal is bigger, it goes down to 800, if the vertical is lower change it to 1000. In this picture the height was bigger so I used 1000 and it scaled the width to down to 700 automatically.
click apply and save away. this one was 72.k file size @ 700x1000 and will fit well. 50-100k is an alright file size imo and saves room for more pics and helps pages load faster.
