Default Kind of OT : Free photo resizing software

I am posting this here because it does not look like the Camera forum gets all that much traffic. Just want to make sure you guy's get a chance to download.
Mod's feel free to delete if you feel it is necessary.

Skynard,
If you are using Windows XP you don't need to download anything to resize your picture. Open a picture with the "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer", right click on the picture, and select "Resize image".

I purchased the rights to this software for a photo hosting web site I was building last fall. I scrapped the idea a couple of months ago because of the illness.
You guys can do what ever you want with it, use it, share it, or delete it. I just figured since its paid for somebody could use it.
Check it out, I really like how easy it is to do batches.

My copy of XP does not do this either.

Skynard & Chad,
The Windows Picture and Fax viewer is a standard part of all Windows XP installations. It's supposed to be the windows default for opening up any image file, although most other types of image software usually overwrites so that it's not default anymore. The quickest way to find the viewer is to open it manually by hitting start/run and copy and paste this code into the run box

rundll32.exe %SystemRoot%\system32\shimgvw.dll,ImageView_Fullsc reen

make sure you paste it exactly as it is written above. Then you can just drag any pictures into the view to open them up.

I have the picture/fax viewer, I don't have the right click option for resizing photos.

Hmmm, that's odd. I'll look into it. I'll tell ya what, I wind up studying more to keep up with Ole Uncle Bill and Windows than I ever did when I was in collage. But I shouldn't complain too much I guess, because without him I wouldn't have near as much work!!!

Here are the only options Bill gives me when I right click.
Speaking of Bill I just spent 15 minutes yelling at him while my computer went into a constant reboot mode.[>:]
