Image Resolution

[MadFrankie]

Hi,

Just looking for some advice on an easy way to change image resolutions, ive got one that something like 640x480 at the moment, I need it to be less than 300 on both axis whilst keepin the same shape.

thanks

download Paint shop pro from the net frankie.

It allows everything that photoshop does. Cracks can be found to register it if you don't want to buy it.

you can find it here.

or you can try irfanview at www.irfanview.com ... its freeware

when you set it up you have to select the types of image files you wish to use it with..

I suggest .jpg/jpeg .bmp .gif and .ico and leave the rest blank.

for just simple image viewing/manipulation( eg. resizing and changing formats ) using large programs like paintshop pro and photoshop are just overkill.

with irfanview you can quickly flip though all the images in a directory just by rolling your mouse wheel or hitting the spacebar, to resize select image --> resize resample and then you can select percentage, pixels, cm's, inches, while keeping the same aspect ratio and then save it in the format you require ( maybe even rename the new file so as you can keep the original )

some people also use acdsee but I think it is too large for the job also.

Just use Microsoft Photo Editor if all you want to do is resize.

Angelfire is a good place to store 'em.
