Kiipu Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 Windows 8.1 Open a photograph in Microsoft Paint. This can be done by right-clicking the image file, scrolling down to “Open with” and clicking on “Paint.” The program will automatically open and should be on the “Home” tab. If not on the “Home” tab, then click on the "Home" tab. In the "Image" section, second from the left, click on “Resize” and a popup window will appear. In the “Resize” section in the top half of the popup window, make sure there is a check-mark in the “Maintain aspect ratio.” For most cellphone and camera photographs, enter the number 25 in either the Horizontal or Vertical row. The number entered will automatically appear in the other row. [For small size photographs, use a larger number. For large size images, use a lower number.] Click on “OK.” The resized picture is now viewable in the work space of MS Paint. In the upper left corner, click on the “File” tab. From the popup window, click on “Save as” and select a file format. [Selecting “JPEG picture” will work best for most forums.] Then select a location to save the file to, give the file a name, and finally click on “Save.” 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
