Since I have to resize pics all the time (for posting to the site), I’ve been looking for something dead-simple to use. Now I had previously used stuff like ThumbsPlus (a great product, but they want to charge me too much for upgrades) and other software, but I’m sick of paying out money for overly complicated software.

So I went poking around and found that Microsoft gives away a simple image resizer. It’s part of their Power Toys and is free for all. It doesn’t do anything except resize pics, but it does have Explorer integration, so it’s super-simple to resize a ton of pics at once. Check it out.

Here’s a download for those who don’t want to search Microsoft’s site: ImageResizerPowertoySetup.exe
