Modelbuilder, I got your pm but didnt get your email with the pic. If you can send it to me, I will fix the size for you. As I mentioned in the other thread, it would be helpful if you download paint.net and that way I can talk you through learning to do it yourself. If you type pain.net in to google you will find it, its a free program an dyou dont have to pay for it and it very useful for this sort of thing.

I know this is quite an old thread so apologies for dragging this one back to life but I use a free program called IrfanView. Not a very detailed image software but allows you to crop and resize quite easily.

Opening up an old thread is not a bad thing when you have something to contribute.

I havent heard of that program, I tend to use paint.net which is another freebie... I'll take a look at the one you mentione!

There are many good programmes for basic and more advanced editing. To name a few for Windows: paint.net, The Gimp, Windows Live Picture Editor. Equally there is no shortage of free apps for android tablets. I assume the same is true of Apple devices. The thing to be careful of is how you find them. Googling 'Free software' is a sure way to put your system in harms way. You should always use a reputable review and download service like Cnet, Computer Active, Google Play (formerly Android Market) and the Appstore.
