download the imageresizer toy.. after its installed and you reboot it will allow you to right click on any saved image and change its size and give you the option to save as a copy or overwrite the original. works great for me.

you are a bit over the max size of 8192 bytes linking it won't work. tried the microsoft resize and the animation goes away sorry wes gave it a try.

Hey Wes, we met at NEMO'S pet store. How are you doing?? Nice to see you again. If you ever run across more of the pickling lime I'd take another tub or 2 the next time your up this way.

Anywho take care man.

Well im in FL right now and will be home late Mon or Tues. I have 2 more at home and i will see if the store has anymore when i get a chance. If they dont you are welcome to the 2 that i got left. Got to get down that way sometime soon and find my wife a Hepatus Tang before she drives me crazy!
