Here's yet another 'Image Resizer' utility. This one is from Microsoft which uses the convenience of the 'right click drop down menu' but the size may not be as small as what Toofan has accomplished. It works with Windows 7 too.

Visit this website:-  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IN/windows/xp-downloads#2TC=powertoys  You will be presented with this (Screenshot)
[The instructions in the screenshot below are self explanatory. Save the .exe file and install it].



Open any picture which has a large size and right click on it. Observe that in the drop down menu you will have an option - 'Resize Pictures' . Click on it.



A window will be presented as shown below. You can choose what suits you. For this demo I have chosen 'Large'. Click 'OK'.



Another similar picture will be created in the same folder and you will also see (Large) in its name. Using 'Properties' from the right click menu confirm the size. [This picture was reduced to 385 KB from 7.56 MB].


A 'Small' sized picture will be 136 KB and a 'Medium' sized picture will be 244 KB.

Use the 'reduced size' picture to post in the Forum.
