If you're using Windows there should be MS Paint. Click on "Image", Strecth/Skew and enter the percentage you want to decrease it by. If no MS paint use some other photo editing software, the Gimp is a great one that's freeware.

There's a size limit on your sig. picture. I believed it's 320x200 max or something like that. If you see some with bigger sig. picture, they are actually braeking the rule but it's up to the mods to regulate that.

This method works for me. I take my pix and highlight it and right click send to - mail recepient. then theres a pop up to allow windows to resize for me automatically. I click ok and my email outlook pops up with attachments in a smaller size for email in a message format. Then I copy, paste the attachments to a directory to save files in, thats how I have my files resized.
