I tried to download the picture re-sizer in epomans attachment files. But it isnt compatable with vista pro.
any help or a link to another re-sizer that is Trustable would be great

Do you have a picture resizing tool?

Yes paul.karen for Vista you need to use Microsoft office manager. Size it to 640x480 or smaller if you can. I have been a little more lenient on picture size but please get the picture as close to that as you can. The pictures you are trying to load are just too big. Hope this helps.

Post by: Chris on January 30, 2009, 08:29:42 AM: I now have Vista and there are 2 programs you can download. I posted them on one of the old topics on how to resize pictures. I have to go find the topic and paste the links here.

Post by: Chris on January 30, 2009, 08:47:05 AM: Forgot to mention, if you used PowerToys Image Resizer from Microsoft before on XP, those programs are similar.
