And I don't think I have an application that can do this.


Can any of the iLife applications resize images?

AppleWorks?

Any other applications that may have came with my Mac? I haven't installed anything that might be able to.

Or any free ones from online?


Any help would be great. And you can laugh too. I did. I think its pathetic that I either can't or don't know that I have the ability to resize images.

freePhotoConverter 3 is the one I prefer. Fast, simple, and resizes/reduces great. It's still PPC, but so lightweight you won't notice.

iPhoto can resize (actually shrink) images when you use the Export command.

Automator can also resize images. You find the resize action in the Preview section of the actions library in Automator.

That Automator action might come in handy when I don't need to shrink images. Thank you.

iResize is easy to use and works great (IMNHO). Resizing is from 32 pixels to 1680 pixels, but if you enlarge beyond the size of the original, then of course, pixalization will occur.
