Click on the Add button, navigate to the location of your photos and select the ones you want to resize – those images should now appear in the main body of the FastStone window. Don’t take too much notice of that, a secondary option will become apparent later in the process:Ī new screen will open which allows you to select the images for resizing and set preferences. When you hover your mouse cursor over the icon you will see a popup saying “Email Selected Images”. Now, open the FastStone interface and click on the envelope icon across the top. The first step I would suggest you undertake is to create a new folder in ‘ Pictures’ and name it something like “Resized Images” or “Resized Photos”. I’m going to show you how to resize images using FastStone Image Viewer, simply because it is my viewer of choice and so already installed on my machine.
Yep, all include a good feature for resizing images. There are plenty of free dedicated image resizing applications available but, if you have one of the popular free 3rd party image viewers installed XnView, IrfanView or FastStone, did you know you already have the necessary tools on hand. There is just one small problem which occasionally arises – file size versus storage and sharing restrictions – this is where resizing can help. As we rely more and more on modern technology for producing our photos, so we also rely on similar technology for storing and sharing. And the digital age has transformed the way we now share our photos, hard copies are growing less common and photo albums are becoming a thing of the past. Megapixel numbers quickly progressed through single figure digits until today where 12 and 14 megapixels are common place. File sizes generated by modern digital cameras have grown hugely since the technology first impacted on our lives.
Resizing photos is a chore just about everyone needs to undertake at one time or another.
