Resizing images? [A]

	Is there any way to make an image smaller or larger on my posts? I'm trying to fit this image into an RP post- I just want to cut away most of the image and focus on the head. Is there a program that will do this sort of cropping in Microsoft? Or do I need a Photobucket account?

	You could try doing it in MS Paint. 1. Open paint. 2. Open the picture. 3. Edit -> Select all. 4. See the four sided move icon? Move it upwards and left until everything you don't want is gone. 5. Go to the bottom right corner, and move the window around by using the little blue tab until everything on the bottom and right is gone. 6. Save the picture. Viola! You have it!

	You can use MS Paint to crop pictures. Ecopper's way works. I usually just use the "select" tool and select the area I want. (The tool that looks like a dashed square.) I then hit "ctrl C". This copies the image inside the square. I open a new paint and paste (ctrl v) the square into it. If you're hoping to make the head any bigger or smaller, you'll run into problems by using Paint. If you just want to crop, then Paint works fine. :}
