Also some freebie apps will resize pics for you. (Think Google with Picassa)

Why don't you use a program to resize photo... I'm using IrfanView, a freeware program, homepage is http://www.irfanview.com... Just use Image/Resize option and enter new dimensions for your photo... I think that will solve your problem...
All best

Another vote for Irfanview.....resizing pics is super-easy and painless.

BTW - IrfanView has a great way of *increasing* the size of pics, too, should the need ever arise. Under resize/resample use the Lanczos filter. Several incremental increases often seems to work well, rather than one giant increase.

Oh, I should have mentioned ... once I was experiencing some small problem with this program. I emailed Irfan himself, not expecting any response and the man emailed me back with a solution - not bad for a freebie, huh?

Pretty doggone good support for a free program! Irfanview has been my default graphics viewer for years on my computers....it has a small footprint, doesn't load a bunch of .dll's and stuff, and is FAST. Besides resizing, you can crop, rotate, add captions, do basic color correction and red-eye removal, etc. It isn't Photoshop, but it doesn't have PS' price tag, either!
