Resizing Images

* Find your image and right click on its icon
* Choose resize Pictures from the menu
* Choose Medium
* Click on Advanced button for more settings
* Click OK to resize your image

Images will be stored in the same location as the original.

Feel free to experiment with different settings, for gallery uploads etc we recommend choosing Medium size and in Advanced tab ticking the first box only. This will then create a copy which will be called by the same name as the original but with the words (Medium) after it.
