don't know if i am in the right place to ask this question but i'll give it a try--

When I open jpegs from my digitial camera using windows explorer, they are huge and you have to scroll to see the whole picture--i would like to be able to send jpegs to relatives and have them be a normal size so no scrolling is necessary. Is this possible?

thanks!
 
What you want to do is lower the DPI or increase the resolution on your pictures.

you'll need to open them with some photo editing software. you can probably adjust this on the camera too for future pictures
 
If you dan't have anything to resize the image take a look at Irfanview.

This is a great free app, small about450k and opens most graphics formats as well as animations.

You can also view your images as thumbnails or full screen as a rolling show.

Has too many features to mention all.

Great little free app
