Easiest way i ave found is to put them in an album on photobucket and resize them when you import them.Then you can get them from photobucket and save them to your computer and they come out at 482x640 pixels

I don't even bother to resave them to my computer, just use the "IMG" hyperlink for your picture that photobucket provides.  Copy and paste baby!

Im not very good with computers , but i jus pull up my pictures then crop in the important stuff . That usually brings the size down to what  can fit. Good luck

I use imgur.com

It's free, quick, and easy image hosting.

It's also got an auto resize feature; you pic what size you want from a dropdown box.

It then gives you a bunch of links, correctly coded for emailing, posting in a forum, putting in a web page, etc.

It's pretty slick.
