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 |

Any suggestions? and possibly put the answer into the 914info area when we are done. Rich SOLUTION?: Switch to LINUX (like the X-UBUNTU I am using right now) - it has all the tools you could EVER even THINK of plus more. GIMP is my favorite for doing what you are talking about (resizing images.) No watermarks ( - unless you WANT them.) And GIMP supports all kinds of filetypes including even some animated types. (ref attached image file showing over 50 types of files that GIMP supports.) And apparently GIMP is available for installation on MSFT OS's also. What you are trying to do is very simple in GIMP. (Select IMAGE then SCALE_IMAGE then press SCALE to execute the changes) (ref below) Remember - WINDOWS is a virus that needs be removed from all computers ! -JW PS: Did ya see the recent humorous story about how IRAN was stuuupid enough to use WINDOZE_7 in its nuclear facilities and was infected with STUXNET - a targeted trojan "virus" that attacked the nuclear facility and destroyed many centrifuges? Hilarious ! Good thing they were not smart enough to be using LINUX or they might have the bomb by now. |
