com), for example, is a
great little program for prepping your photos for e-mail.
This simple $15 program is designed from the ground up to crop and resize photos. After you
drag an image into the application window, you can move a cropping frame around the screen
until you??™ve composed the picture just the way you want. The cool part is this: you can configure
the cropping frame??™s proportion based on how large you want the resulting photo, so there??™s
absolutely no guesswork. Set the end photo size to 640?—480, for instance, and the cropping frame
is proportioned exactly right for the job. You can also scale the cropping frame to include more
or less of the original image in the new, resized photo. It??™s all very clever and makes you wonder
why no one ever thought of that before.
A Smaller Image also includes sharpness, brightness, and contrast controls, an optional graphic
border for your images, and a simple text tool for adding captions. If you frequently resize photos
for e-mail, the Web, or printing, A Smaller Image is a handy tool.

Someone Sent to You
Not all e-mail programs are great for viewing photos. Outlook, for example, isn??™t bad; to see
a photo attached to an e-mail, you can double-click the attachment icon to open the photo
in Windows Photo Gallery, or you can click the Preview button to see a small version of the
image in Outlook itself.
