ShrinkPictures
If you have only one photograph to resize, ShrinkPictures is an excellent choice.
Although you are limited to one picture at a time, this site is very easy to use and will reduce the picture to a desired size while reducing the file size as well.
1. Open the ShrinkPictures site.(https://www.christianphotographers.com/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fseniorsandfriends.org%2Fgallery%2FJeanne%2Fshrinkpictures%25201.jpg&hash=0de98d84896951a31ca021da08fe653d385e587d)
