As I look for it, I can't find it since I downloaded Win 10.  Do they not offer it any more? Or is it an app I have to go find and download?

That has been the way I've done this in the past, before Windows 10, but now what I get is a drop down window with:
Paint
Photos
Picasa Photo Viewer
Power Media Player
Snapfish
Choose another app    (It's n there either.)

In the ""old"" one I could resize photos from there. Can't do it now.

Mine open with 'photos'....resizing is a different app now....

I upload to http://www.slickpic.com/ now.....nice site, easy, and you can tinker with them too.....but I  just use the pic link with no issues...

I was going to reload Photorazor, but I'll take a quick look at slickpic

In the meantime I went to a Microsoft help group and learned that it can be resized in the Paint program! So now let me try it out on you...!

There we go..! got it finally!  Had to reduce it to 20% of my original. I leave my Canon on the high resolution (or whatever you call it) to get the best photos I can of the homes I list. Also for the details in the fish I photograph (still in a very primitive state for me at this time).

So how does it  look to you guys?  Can anyone ID this plant for me?
Happy Aquariuming,
Ron

Looks great, Ron....I may have to try it too....

And one more... for ID!

I went to Picasa and to resize there involved way too many steps for this old boy to remember!  I really just needed some time to sit down and really research where to go to find it in Windows. It was moved, I guess! 

I like the new Photo Gallery for editing my photos for homes now. A little simpler than before. I'll be working with it on my aquatic endeavors as time allows.

Do you, or anyone else here, know if quality is better if you edit photos before resizing or after?
Happy Aquariuming,
