      Eileen has been struggling with IE7 and IE8 for two years.
      
      Go and download Firefox and you won't even have to think about resizing pictures - I never do.

   There is a lot of grumbling about pic uploading from IE 8 users.
   It sure does seem to be buggy.

   How many pics?
   What programmes have you got?
   Have you got Photoshop?
   
   Where are you keeping you pics now?
   I mean do you have your own site or are you just using your PC and a basic microsoft program?

   I use a Kodak programme (that came with the camera) upload n store to there (sometimes desktop, or shoot pics straight to email). Sis (In NZ ,said pics came through the sze of posters-haha..)
   
   Had a lil thought that maybe Ive fiddled with camera settings too, (noooo..not me) and they are transfering exactly the way I take them....
   Still I should be able to reduce them.
   
   No dont have photoshop, will download n try that. Thanks.
   
   Go Go all things Kiwi!!!
   
   I love to keep up with this site too

   Microsoft Paint is ok for basic pic works EK -
   
   The edit function for shrinking is very easy.
   
   If you learn Photoshop... you can have alot of fun.
   I also use Coraldraw.

    I found a good site that will resize your pics for free. Go to http://www.picresize.com
    
    They give you the option of making the picture 25, 50 or even 75% smaller, and they have basic editing options on there as well. Hope this helps you out.
    
    I find it works perfectly for blog photos :-)
