Hi Richard

I had the same problem the other day, and another Breammaster member helped me "Jimi". I have just copied and pasted the reply that Jimi gave me, it worked a treat - thanks JIMI.

"- go to paint,
- Open image
- Go to Image->Attributes and check the pixel size. this should be less than 500x500
- If not, go to Image->Stretch/Skew and type in a stretch level like 70% or something to shrink it.
- Make sure horizontal and vertical are the same or it will be distorted.
- Check the size again in attributes, or hover the mouse over the bottom right corner to see the size in the status bar.

You can calculate the right stretch ratio beforehand pretty easily if you want to make it a bit faster (finalsize/initialsize *100). Do that for the longest size and then use the same ratio for both sides.

Cheers
James"


Hope that helped, it helped me.
