i use the paint application. the older model for XP used to allow you resize to specific pixel size which was great. the Vista version only allows you to adjust by % so i use 75% and they fit ok

Most image viewing programs will have a resizing tool, if you don't have anything, Picasa which is free seems to do it quite easily, there is a guide [url=http://www.latech.edu/tech/rural/website%20project/web_tutorial/articles/resize_pictures_picasa.html]Here[/url]
that shows it step by step using Picasa, with a download link for the program as well.

A good size to use is around 800 pixels wide.

Sean,
