| | I want to right click to resize photos I downloaded an add-on when I had windows XP that allowed me to resize any picture with a right click. I can't seem to find the same add on in microsoft vista. It was listed as toyz in windows. Any help? I've been to the vista page on line, but couldn't find it. |

| | Re: I want to right click to resize photos Sorry to bring this back up but one thing i dont understand is. When you select an image, or two, or twenty. You can select to send to email recipient and there it gives you an option for resizing the images. SO WHY THE HELL CANT THEY JUST MAKE THIS AN OPTION IN THE RIGHT CLICK MENU with a 'copy to' or 'edit original' option ? ? ? Surely its not that hard. I think its something that many people would appreciate. grrrr Microsoft will never cease to amuze me |

| | Re: I want to right click to resize photos I have to agree with Grimace. I think with all the time that MS has had to develop Vista at least it could have the same features and toyz as XP. I used this feature daily, on 100s of photos and I'm struggling with finding a suitable fix. Thanks to everyone that have been help with links on this.

| | Re: I want to right click to resize photos I suggest you find and d/l the free "IrfanView" program. I like the older version 3.75 better, which I have used for years for quick blow ups etc.. Then I use my other graphic program to edit if needed.. -- Roy Ballew "Omnicool" <Omnicool@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:CF11211F-B7E9-4860-999B-0A3B7D2E224D@xxxxxx Quote: >I have to agree with Grimace.
