i tried to use it to sell but a scammer sent me a cheque for a couple thousand pounds for a 99p item and tried to get me to send them the difference!

Hi Mandles,
Download VSO Image Resizer - free download
My photos are reduced to 640x480 px
Sold over 20 items on ibootsale in one month,
Good luck with your selling

Thanks. I finally just discovered and easier way .

• Right click edit on picture to be edited.
• It comes up then under paint
• Go to attributes
• Click stretch/skew
• reduce both from 100% to 50% (width and length)
• and it downloads perfectly.

Hope this helps someone.
Many thanks though.

I couldn't get on with that either, I kept getting just the top left hand corner of the photo. In the end I took new photos in a smaller size - there's a setting on my camera. Maybe someone else has a better idea.

Mandles

(as on my idiot guide above (which i needed!) under attributes it says strech/skew click that option and reduce by 50%

can you remove something from your pitch - so if say i had something on ebay and it sold i could take it off my pitch?

Mandles

yes you can. click on it and it says delete item.
