This is a MUST HAVE site, so easy to resize pics to send or attach.

http://www.resize2mail.com/

It really seems to work well and no fees or registration is required.
You just have to save back the smaller size pics back to your computer
and then you can send them or do whatever needs to be done. They get
resized with some weird number letter combos so you can rename them
before you save to your computer.

Picassa 2 has the same function with a slide bar to adjust the size.

I use Microsoft's own, you just right click a picture or pictures and tell
it what size you want

There's a similar thing called Image Well for Macs - maybe for pcs too but I
don't know about that!

Also, Irfanview- excellent image viewer, with a bunch of easy resize
options, and even a batch resize/rename mode for doing all the pictures I
just transferred from the digital camera. Free; donations accepted.

There are lots for PCs.

No I meant I didn't know if Image Well could be used on Macs - sorry, I
wasn't clear.

Get a small program called Irfanview from most coverdiscs. You can
resize, adjust colours, brightness, information density, etc.

You can take a 30,000 KB bitmap and reduce it to (say) 90 KB jpeg
without losing any visible detail on the screen.

If you can't find a copy, I'll send you one.

Why would one want to use a website for this when there are many free
utilities about that enable you to do it much faster on your own PC?

Aside from using your bandwidth there are privacy issues, they may say
they won't use your images but how do you know that they won't or glean
information from them?

I'd have a look at Picasa as well. You may find it more intuitive

Picasa is another branch of google.
