You can do it with photo editing software such as Photoshop or much of the software provided by the camera manufacturers.

 

I use this all the time. Reduces one image or as many as you want at one time. Can choose among several preset sizes to reduce to, or make a custom size. Free. Easy to use. I use it every day.

You can use paint to resize also!

The big difference between Paint, Photoshop, or camera manufacturer-supplied software and Image Resizer is that the former require you to load a program and then load the image into the program before you can do anything with it.

With Image Resizer, resizing is done on the fly, instantly, by just right-clicking on the image and selecting "resize image."

 

The other, even BIGGER advantage to Image Resizer is that, with those other programs, you resize one image at a time by loading it into the program, resizing, and then saving. If you want to resize anything more than a handful of images, this get laborious.

With Image Resizer, you can resize one image, 20 images, 100 images, as many as you want at one time by just selecting them all, doing the same right-click, and you're done. Same number of steps to do one image or 1000.

The only thing is, they'll all be resized to the same new size, but this is usually what you want, anyway, if you're trying to post them to a site like this.

 

I will get image resizer and give it a try thanks everyone for your replys.
Take care

I just use a hosting site like photobucket and link to the pic. Easy-peasy.

 

That's what I do 98% of the time, too, but some people may just want to upload two or three photos and don't want to go through the process of establishing an account at another site, etc., just for that.

 

I use www.tinypic.com, it has a resize feature before you upload. minimize your classicolds post, go to tiny pic, You find the pics on your browser, pick 1 out, go to resize scroll to web board size, upload, answer stupid ad question (they use to not have that) click on address, right click copy, maximize classicolds, right click paste, say what you want about your next pic, hit enter, repeat process....

 

I attach to an email, then open each attachment and click copy the picture, minimize it and then paste to you picture folder. Select to save both. The emailed picture will be smaller. I just did one that was 2 MB and the email attached copy was 152 KB.
