Mike Milillo · 02-07-2008, 08:33 PM

Hello everybody. I just started getting into using a digital camera. I have a canon SD550. I figured I would transfer my pictures to my PC often so I wouldn't mind using the highest resolution possible even though it took up more space on the card. The problem is, when I click the pictures on my PC they are huge and are about 3mb each. So, now I started using the lowest resolution and they are sized nicely when opening.

Is there a way to take my old pictures and re-size them after the fact?

I assume the resolution settings determine how big the pictures are, right?

what is the fine, superfine, etc settings?

thanks
