Thanks, good advice.
Although the op did not ask, I want to supply this info.
Great little tools that not all know about (at least us newbie's anyway) are
the
Powertools for XP.
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx
The have great little no muss no fuss image resizer.
Also, if your doing things on the cheap...(like me)
http://www.freeserifsoftware.com/
This site has free photo-editing tools. Don't expect Photoshop, but for
resizing and
tweaking color, hue, ect, this is fast free and easy!
Hope this helps,
jojo
