from a prior post of mine...

though not the best, this solution certainly is free...

if your are running a Billy Gates program, MSpaint comes installed with pretty much any Windows installation.

Under Windows XP/Win 2k
Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Paint

(I know that this is also available under Win95/98/ME but am not sure where MS Paint is launched from)

re-sizing an image is easy in the program:

- from the image pull down menu choose "stretch/skew"
- change the percentage for the resize to what you want (keep the horizontal and vertical the same to maintain your aspect ratio)
- now in the file menu, "Save As" and choose the location and file name (as well as file type, I usually use .jpg)
