Hi Barrie and other 215 V8ers.
When it comes to managing photos out of my digital camera , especially
having to resize i've found that 'Irfanview' can't be beaten.

freeware i understand. There's also another 'weapon' i find useful too that
lets you compress a .jpg image file:
http://www.xat.com/jpeg_optimizer/jpeg_optimizer.shtml and it lets you see
just how dregraded the image can become before you save it for use.
