Dave,

You will need some sort of graphic package that has a 'resize' function. Paintshop pro and loads of others offer this..

It's then just a simple matter of opening your graphic file up and resizing it to 100x100 or whatever ratio provides either 100pixels max width or its height. (Be careful to 'lock aspect ratio' which prevents the image from squeezing or stretching).

Hope this helps.

If your still struggling send it to me (PM me if you cant get my email address) and I'll do it for you.

Neil
