Image Resizer for Windows XP

Ever want to resize an image(or several) just so you could send them in an email without email bombing someone's mailbox? Most any graphics package will allow you to resize an image, but what if you don't feel like launching Adobe Photoshop or IRFanView just to resize a single image? If you're running XP, Microsoft has a neat little solution called 'Image Resizer' that's delivered as one of the Windows XP Powertoys.

Once you download and install the Image Resizer XP Powertoy, you can just Right Click on an image file (.jpg) in Windows Explorer and select 'Resize Pictures'. By default, it makes a copy of the image named 'filname (custom).jpg'

I found this out by shoulder surfing a guy that had a Canon EOS 10D at Genentech out in San Francisco. Thanks Avais!
