I do it by opening them into paint and making them smaller, save them then post. There is probably an easier way but that's how I do it.

To get decent pics I had to set my camera to the lowest resolution setting(640x480) then I found Photobucket. Free photo storage with a resizing option. Then all you have to do is cut and paste to PA.

Photobucket is the way ta go, even membership is cheap, but you don't need to pay.

I email the photos to myself then save them to the desktop. I have a Mac and the I Photo program lets me size the images before emailing them.

I just use the old Microsoft Photo Editor to re-size my pictures.  Simple and easy to use.  It didn't come with my newer computer so I just downloaded it from this site http://www.brothersoft.com/microsoft-photo-editor-128651.html

P.S. This site has nothing to do with archery so a direct link should be ok
