Picture resizing software

Are there any freeware programs that let you view and resize pictures easily? I was hoping for something were i could just type in the size.
Thanks

 

Something like ACDSee, FSViewer as picture browsing programs?

You don't mean picture modifying like GIMP right?

 

I'm not sure what GIMP is, but i just want to resize pictures so i can easily put them on my phone

 

Picasa is free and does it very easily... but it's a whole photo organizing program.

i use the windows powertoys pic resize app to resize my digicam pics. it's really easy to use, just select as many pics as you want and there's a 'resize pictures' option in the right click menu.

 

yup, same thing I was going to say.

Very nice little program

 

Xnview
loads quickly, great when u want to simply crop and resize an image, without opening PhotoShop

 

The best ones I have tried are .......

http://www.faststone.org/

or http://www.stormdance.net/software/photorazor/software%20overview.htm

Also you can download this for easy editing and resizing too .... HERE

 

I'll add irfanview to the list... one of my favourite Windows batch resizer/converters.

 

Thanks for all the help. I really apreaciate it

 

For me Picasa and ACDSee.

 

alright..i tried picasa and couldnt find the resize option. I downloaded the image resizer from microsoft powertoys and all i can seem to find is the readme. The program isnt there. Any ideas?

direct download to the windows powertoys app. after you install it just right click on any picture and there will be a resize option in the menu.

 

In Picasa, while you have the pictures you want selected, click export on the bottom and you're presented with this screen:

​

I think you can figure things out from there.

Does anyone have experience with both picasa and faststone ? They both look pretty good to me, perhaps someone can throw up a quick comparasin?

Particuarly looking at system rescource usage. I like lite programs, REAL lite.

Thanks

And sorry for the terrible spelling- but its 2 AM and i havent slept in 2 nights

 

Picasa is by no means a small program. It's a photo organizing suite. You're probably better off with the other program.

Another vote for InfranView. Much easier and lighter than Picasa. Don't know for speed, but InfranView is very fast.

 

I use MS Paint

or Adobe Photoshop

 

Hahaha, you can't get any more extreme on either end than that. In general, they are what I use too if I don't feel like using Picasa.
