Resizing Images in Windows 7

Question

Hello: I loved using the Image Resizing function that came with Windows XP in Microsoft's Power Tools download.

All you had to do was right click and choose your new size.

I now have a new desktop that has Windows 7 Ultimate and I see no such thing listed anywhere on the Microsoft site as a download.

Is this available anywhere for Windows 7?

Thanks!

I miss that, too! However, there is a resizing function in Windows Live Photo Gallery (part of the free Windows Live suite of programs). You do have to be in the "Gallery" view of your pictures. In that view, you can do the right-click and it will offer the resize options. (Wish you could just do it while viewing a single photo.)

What's weird is that even in Windows Explorer you can right-click on a photo and it will give you the "rotate" options, but no resizing.

' Google found this one. http://imageresizer.codeplex.com/'   Downloaded this one and it works PERFECTLY!  Just like the one from XP!   Thank you!  :emotion-2:

Glad that works. Lots of clever developers who are generous enough to produce (or reproduce) all those neat toys for free - just gotta find 'em.  :emotion-1:
