LOL

You could use photoshop or some type of photo editing, even paintbrush would work, once its opened in there, goto:

IMAGE/// Sketch/Skew

Then reduce it by 50% or so,

There are other ways to do it too.

You can often still go forward / back and recover your text

For those who do not have photoshop and do not wish to spend half the cost of your computer to get photoshop, you may try free image editing software such as the the one provided by google:

download Picasa here: http://picasa.google.com/

OR if you want just a simple image resizer, check out Microsoft Powertoys:

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/d...powertoys.mspx

There's one called "Image Resizer". Download link is on the right side of the page.

Oh yeah, also, when you resize your photos using any software, I strongly recommend saving the new edited/resized image as a new file. Once you shrink an image, it is going to be tough to maintain its quality if you want to enlarge it again.

Do not save over your originals.

You should defintely use Microsofts Image Resizer program. Just right-click and tell it what size you want to have.
