    Here's something I thought I'd share.

    I've been a big fan of computer expert Kim Komando for years, her radio show, newspaper articles and website has been invaluable to me, I would listen to her toubleshoot listener's problems even before I got my computer and retained her advice.

    http://www.komando.com/

    I subscribe to her free daily newsletters - she has one called Cool Site Of Day.
    http://www.komando.com/coolsites/

    She had this site listed the other day, I just got around to opening it - it's a site for easy pic resizing. She vets anything she recommends and I trust her.
    Speedy image resizing
    These days, digital cameras take huge pictures. Resizing is often necessary before images are posted or shared via e-mail.

    You probably have a program that resizes photos. But using it to resize a picture or two is a lot of work.

    Fortunately, Quick Thumbnail will help. This Web site will resize your photographs (or other images).

    Just upload an image. Specify your options. You can reduce or enlarge the image by a percentage. Or you can select from some predefined sizes.

    Not quite sure what size you need? That’s okay. Several options are available. Click Resize, and you’ll get the resized image(s). It’s fast and easy.

    This is one site you’ll want to bookmark!

    TO VISIT TODAY'S COOL SITE, GO HERE:

    http://quickthumbnail.com/

    I played around with it and it's pretty easy.

    Jim

    Jim, you doll you!!! Tho another bookmark is the LAST thing I need, the ability to resize pictures is a Godsend. Now, if I can get my DH to check it out there will be many happy board members here just waiting for me to share some of my shots. Unfortunately, poor DH is suffering badly w/ Fall allergies so it may still take a while. In any event, this site looks like the answer to my prays. A virtual kiss is headed your way :-*
