I cant seem to find the MS Windows powertoys for Windows 7.
Is there another free tool that does the same thing? I downloaded one but it puts a watermark on the pic unless I pay....not happening. Any suggestions? and possibly put the answer into the 914info area when we are done. Rich |

Did that for a while.. Started as a high resolution pic at 1.7 megs. Dropped it in size and pixels... At 640*480 its still 1MB. Cant upload it here. So, either I am nuts, or MSPaint still sucks. Rich |

Rich You are nuts alright ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) What format are you saving the images in? What DPI do the source images have? MsPaint under Win7 has a lot of new features and supports more file formats. I actually use it a lot now as it's faster than waiting for PhotoShop to load up just to resize a image ... Make sure you drop the DPI to 72 or 96. Anything higher than that is wasted filesize for web images. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif) |
