Hi fella , common question on here.

1/Open your pic with Paint
2/Click 'Image' on Top tool bar
3/Click on Stretch/skew on drop down menu.
4/You will see 2  100%  figures in boxes  Replace these with 30%  and press ok
5/ Click file  -----save as
6/ Name your file
7/ Make sure you save it as a JPeg image not a 24 bit bmp file like it will try and prompt you.

couple of ways kev

1 (assuming the pic is stored on your pc already and you have vista)
open pictures--open the pic you want reduced
click open (top right)
on drop down menu select paint
click  image
click resize/skew..
reduce the horizontal and vertical amounts (say from 100% to 60%)
click ok
close paint
then when asked click save
there are other ways depending on what image software you have...if you have office picture manager let me know and i'll post another way if you want

Gimp is a really good open source image editor but the best is photoshop or fireworks but both cost money
here's the link to Gimp
http://www.gimp.org/features/

If anyone needs anything resized let me know as I have Photoshop & fireworks programs for work
