Guest JudiK Posted April 2, 2006 Share Posted April 2, 2006 MAC resizing tool isn't free, but it's cheap. It's called - "Picture Resizing Tool", Google or any other search engine will send you to the right location to download it. I'm still working on my signature - it's late and I have papers to grade and lectures to prepare tomorrow, so it will probably be next week before I put one together now... FWIW, I worked in Fortune 500 PC-support for 20 years; never touched a Mac until 3 years ago. You couldn't give me a Windows laptop. OSX is UNIX and it really kicks some Win-butt. I still keep a Win Media Center PC in the den, but I live with my iBook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've resized my photos on Infranview, but when I try to upload to greytalk, it still says file exceeds limit!! Now that Mypetpages is gone, I am totally in the dark with this whole photo process.....HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'd be glad to if you're in western MA. I'm in Wappingers Falls, NY, south of Poughkeepsie. When you use Irfanview the only precaution is to not overwrite the high resolution file. The safest way is to put all the files from your camera in one directory (say BIG) and make sure that Irfanview writes the shrunken file to another directory (say SHRUNK). Here are step by step directions for shrinking one file at a time. Load an image into Irfanview. Select Image/Resize and note the size of the original image (maybe 1200 x 1600 pixels). Then type 400 in the width or height box which contains the larger original pixel count (1600 in this example). The number in the other box for height or width will be recomputed to be 300 in this example. Then click OK and the photo will be shrunken. Then select File/Save As (carefull, don't select Save) and change the directory to the SHRUNK directory In the sample I just dig this to the file shrunk from 745,000 bytes to 25,400 bytes. Now you can try to upload the shrunken file to Greytalk. If it's still too big go back to the start and shrink it to less than 400 pixels on the large dimension. Irfanview will also do batch conversions. That is it will resize many files at one time very quickly. Here are the step by step directions. Start Irfanview and load (File/Open) the first file. Then select FILE/BATCH CONVERSION. A new window opens. In the upper right panel navigate to your BIG file directory and highlight all the files. Then click on the ADD button and all your filenames should appear in the left window. Then set the OUTPUT DIRECTORY to your SHRUNK directory using browse if necessary. Under WORK AS: click on BATCH CONVERSION. Under BATCH CONVERSION SETTINGS: click on USE ADVANCED OPTIONS and on SET ADVANCED OPTIONS. A second window opens. Click on RESIZE, SET LONG SIDE TO, and type 400 in the box. Make sure pixels is checked. Then click on PRESERVE ASPECT RATIO, USE RESAMPLE FUNCTION, and DON'T ENLARGE SMALLER IMAGES. Then click OK. The second window closes. Now click on START and watch it go! Click on Exit when it finishes. To check your work you can select FILE/OPEN, nevigate to your SHRUNK directory, click PREVIEW ACTIVE, and move the highlight through all the file names. The preview window will show you the picture and next to it will be displayed the Width, Height, and File size.

onrushpam Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 you are a supporter, use the supporter gallery, it does that stuff for you OK... I'm a supporter... and I can NEVER get this to work! It just tells me the file exceeds size limits... I can resize them, but it would be so nice to have the "automatic" part! Please enlighten me!

Guest FrostyBottoms Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 Hi Jeff - i HAVE RESIZED MY PICTURE TO 100x75 AND my signature picture keeps being removed because it is too big...I see that thingy is supposed to be less than 15k, but it isn't, how do I get the lower resolution? I tried zooming in, so as to have a lesser quality ( I don't know if that matters) Anyway, If you could tell me how to do this, I would appreciate it! Thanks! ~Jeannie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted June 3, 2007 Share Posted June 3, 2007 yeah, 37k is way too big. It could be photobucket messing up the size of your images. It has happened before. I have never used photobucket so I can't help you with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest greymom1997 Posted June 9, 2007 Share Posted June 9, 2007 Hi I got your message that my sig was more than the 15k.... Is this better? I resized them on photobucket... both are 6kb. If it is can I still add their names? If not I'll try something other than photobucket. This isn't my computer so I can't download the one you suggest. http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa78/gr...llieresting.jpg http://i196.photobucket.com/albums/aa78/gr...eimpression.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest longdogs Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Try this one if you have problems with Irfanview. The same site has some other useful stuff too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Just found another one that I really like http://pagesperso-orange.fr/pierre.g/xnview/enhome.html Works great for resizing your avatar submissions. I had been using an old Ulead program, and I like the new one I posted above better Not quite as simple, but has many more options and is still easy and fast to use. Keeping with my new expectations, the zip file is portable, no installation required Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a lot you can do in photobucket to your photos, but file size is not one of them that I'm aware of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
