    Default What Program do you use to resize your quilt pictures?

    when I started with my first website one of the techs suggested I download Irfanview. I think it is a fantastic easy way to work with pictures. I was thinking about putting a tutorial on on how to use Irfanview. It is a free program.

    But I wondered what everyone uses and what you think about it. I use paint to some degree but not alot. I don't want to buy anything so I am happy with the one I have.

    If I want to do a lot of editing to a photo, I use Photoshop. But for basics things like resizing, I use Picnik. It's free and online, you don't have to download anything! My web host recommended it to me. http://www.picnik.com/

    I've used Irfanview for years now. It's super easy to use.

    I use PhotoScape, a free program and it works well. I used to use Adobe free and they changed it.

    Default Awesome rogram

    Hi, I have downloaded so many different photo, graphics programs and ended up removing them all, until the other day, I decided to give it another try to resize pictures, as my paint program didn't have it. Found paint.net, free online and it does it all and so easy to use. Check it out! Resized all quilt pictures to 640x480.
