Can someone tell me how to make photos smaller. I can not even figure it out with my camera (no time for the search function)

Open up your image in Windows Paint. Then hit Crtl +w to stretch and skew. Type in the percential you want it reduced for horizontal and verticle. If it's 100%, reduce it to 25% for each or what ever. Then save it with a new name. When you load your images onto your pc from the camera, you should have some kind of viewing program with it. You can also resize with them in a batch. Saves alot of time.

One other suggestion if you want to save time. Get a photobucket account and load them on there. Then just post a link.

Or, go to Microsoft and download their image resize power toy. Once installed, you just right click on the pic and resize the picture.
