    Open it in preview
    Then go to the task bar at the top.
    Tools; adjust size; and pick a size.
    Anywhere from 500 pixels-800 pixels wide will fit in the green screen nicely.

      You must have a newer OS. I just checked mine and that tool isn't available on 10.4

        You can also use online resizer tools and iPhoto. tons of tutorials on the net. Google is your friend.

              Hillybgigem, as with coup, it don't work for me. I updated everything and still no luck.

              Tyge, Man I thought you were lion poop. Good to hear from you again. I just got back from across the pond. I shot another Zebra and a pretty nice Nyala

                Huh, thats weird.

                I would try resizing them online, there are lots of free programs you can use.

                  I love my Macs but I have to admit there was a huge learning curve. Most of the programs and bells/whistles we were using on a PC will not work on a Mac. Free programs that actually work on a Mac are few and far between. I finally found a solution a while back that has made my life much, much easier...

                  PARALLELS!!!

                  I now run Windows XP on my Mac when I need to run those Windows programs I just HAVE to have from time to time. Saved me several hundred bucks if not thousands on software and I don't have to learn new programs. This one program makes my 17" Macbook Pro road warrior the ultimate computer.

                  Scott, shoot me a PM or email with your contact info, please. Great to hear from you.

                      Try openin the pic in iPhoto and exporting it to your desktop to upload. You can adjust the size in export.

                          Imagewell is my favorite quick photo editor. I had the free version...downloaded the newest version like a dummy...now it's not free anymore. Still worth the money though. You can do a lot more than resize.

                            This works well. Choose Medium for your size and pic quality and it should work for you.
