Resizing Pictures for Posts

Hi all,

Sorry to trouble everyone with such a basic question, but may somebody explain how to resize pictures taken with an iPhone so that they can be posted on the forum?

I have a painting blog that I would love to post but I can't seem to upload my pictures as the file sizes are too big. Any advice would be much appreciated. Can this be done without photoshop?

Thanks!

I suggest downloading Irfanview (it's free): http://www.irfanview.com/

First of all, you can adjust color balance (shift + U is autolevels, which works usually well enough). Second, you can crop the picture (just use a mouse to choose the area and crop (Ctrl + Y is the shortcut)). Third, you can resize the pic (Ctrl + R). All of these can naturally be found in the menus, too.

Finally, you can combine pics into panoramas.

It won't take long per pic, but the difference is absolutely huge. Highly recommended.
