Any good image or photo software should be able to do the trick.

What kind of camera are you using Kyle? Mine has a little button that make a "quick pic" making a copy of the 1mb image at about 50 -60 kb, if you have a digital camera maybe you also might have something like that.

For more control I suggest using an image program such as Paintshop Pro or Adobe Photoshop.

I recommend
Try Irfanview. It's freeware and does a pretty good job.

windows paint only will do this on XP, and even then it's cropping and resizing features are limited and clumsy at best.

hear, hear. I am using the edit and resize functionality in Paint in Windows XP, and it has really limited features.
zouleous, I am going to give Irfanview a shot, thanks for the tip.
