bruzki Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 My employer requires that I send all my project photos in JPG at 640 x 480 size. How do I set up to assure that this is the size of the photos that I email? Any help offered is very much appreciated. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Click on Image, then on Attributes, and change the size, there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brendon Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 That doesn't seem to resize the photo, Bruce. Check it out. It crops to 640x480 if the photo is larger, and puts the photo in a 640x480 white space if the photo is smaller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggrussell Posted September 28, 2008 Report Share Posted September 28, 2008 Can be done in PhotoSuite very easily. Most cameras use the same aspect ratio as 640X480 so the image will not be distorted. Open PhotoSuite 11 Load your image Click resize Change 'inches' to 'pixels' Type in 640 X 480 Click OK Save file or Save File As if you want a copy and not alter the original IF the original is not the same aspect ratio, first use the CROP feature to the correct aspect ratio and then resize.

Big_Dave Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 If you are using VISTA, right mouse click on the photo jpg and select SEND TO. A window will open that will allow you to resize the JPG. The photo will then get attached into an Outlook new mail document. Another method is to use Roxio Photo Email Assistant then select webmail and small size it will then resize the jpg to 640x480 and place the new photo into a folder which you then can use.

Brendon Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 No white space in mine. It resized it, perfectly, but I am running XP, not Vista. That's what's puzzling me, Bruce. I was doing it in XP too. Wonder what I'm doing wrong. Edit: No, it seems mine is behaving properly. It's supposed to crop the photo if it's too big, and pad it with background color if the photo is too small. MS Paint calls it resizing, but all it's really doing is putting the same sized photo into a bigger or smaller frame. See the second note in the Help. I suggest you forget this one, Bruzki.

ggrussell Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 I get the same thing as you Brendon with MS Paint in WinXP. It seems to crop the image. And there is no 'zoom' less than 100%. LOL Kinda makes it difficult to view an entire image from my camera. Even tried a 'select all' and then going to Attributes. Still crops on my machine.

malatekid Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 bruzki, the custom resize in the freeware Image Cropper does the job. You might want to give it a try, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ggrussell Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 And you can do a batch resize, too, with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Highlander Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 I never like posting a competitors product but VSO free image re sizer dose it for me, and it dose batch group resizing to. http://www.vso-software.fr/products/image_resizer/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
