I used to use XP before the laptop was purchased. As a long time Windows user, I knew to install PowerToys to make my XP experience that much more enjoyable (why those features weren't just included with the OS still boggles the mind). One of the PowerToys upon which I relied quite heavily was the right click option to resize my images. All of my postings for Craigslist have been such a whip since making the move to Vista since that isn't an option (from what I can tell, there are still no PowerToys created for Vista).

However, I have stumbled upon a very clever piece of software that will resize even better than the PowerToy option in XP. Hooray!

For those of you using Windows 2000/XP/Vista and have batches of images to resize, VSO Image Resizer is an excellent tool. I highly recommend it! Best of all, it's free for personal use! :)

Yes, little things excite me.

I like irfanview for resizing pictures.

I've used Irfanview, and perhaps it's changed since I last used it, but I like the VSO program so much better. It gives me the option to resize the images without opening the software and I can even resize in batches. I love not having to actually open and close the program. :)

irfan does batch resizing also.

pretty cool that you don't have to open a program though!
