Reduce the image to either 300 or 240.... then use the Canvas tool to reduce the image to your specification.... you need a good graphics application to do this.... such as Photoshop or The Gimp.

Adobe photoshop is real easy to use, at least for resizing pictures.

Here are two of my choices:\n\nFor a professional-like but totally free great photo editing software try GIMP. You will use it for many other editing jobs too:\n\nhttp://www.gimp.org/\n\nFor a less sophisticated but still totally free program try Paint.NET. It looks and feels like the original Windows Paint but much more muscle power:\n\nhttp://www.eecs.wsu.edu/paint.net/\n\nOK...For a REALLY simple editor which can resize and crop images to specific sizes try:\n\nhttp://www.softforall.com/Multimedia/MediaManagement/CoffeeCup_Free_Viewer_Plus07060042.htm

If you have MS Office installed you would have photo editor with it.\nopen the pic with photo editor and it would have an option to compress photo for example document/web page etc and would show you the size it would reduce it.\nselect the one you like and save it under different file name.

Yes, make sure your pictures are 100kb or less. If they are huge files (like over a MB or 2) Then you need to make them smaller.

You could download a free trial version of PaintShopPro by Corel.\n\nIt does the best job of resizing images that I have seen. However, when trying to make pictures bigger, you generally get disappointing results because they are generally very low resolution. When you make them bigger, they look grainy and pixelated.

REDUCING SIZE:\nOpen the image in paint then go to EDIT > SELECT ALL or press CTRL+A to select all. A dotted line will appear around the image, then just drag it to a smaller size.\n\nNow u might see a lot of empty white space behind the image to remove that:\nClick on the empty space to un-select the image, i.e. the dotted line disappears and then drag the small blue boxes around the image to crop the White space.\n\nHope these steps helps or u can always send me the image ill dot it for u.\n\nREDUCING SIZE (as in kb's)\n\ngo to http://www.chami.com/jc/\nand get the image compressed.

Use a program such as paint shop pro, or other image editing software to open the picture file, and compress it to the point that it still looks good to you, but is a more manageable size.  Each program does this a little differently, but the option is usually easy to find and does not take a great deal of time.\n\nHope that helps!

Load the original into windows move maker(start/programs/accessories).\nSave as WMV and choose the compression that suits you.\nIt will result in very poor reproduction if you shrink it tooooooo much. \nTrial and error is the only way to see what you have as a result.

Use Photoshop to reduce the image size to a few inches, but still keeping a decent resolution.

Use a photo editing program to resize or crop the photo.  I recommend Paint Shop Pro by Jasc.  It's simple to use, affordable and has many features.  You can download a free trial by visiting www.jasc.com
