I use Paint to resize a lot of photos and used to be able to highlight multiple photos and rightclick edit but since reinstalling o/s I can only right click and edit one photo at a time any ideas how to go back to the old way?

Sorry, can't help you with your specific question, but if you're on Windows then give Irfanview a go (http://www.irfanview.com/).
It's free and can do batch re-sizing very easily.

Use a decent paint package other than MS paint and you can open as many images as you want at once untill your memory gets full and your pc starts to fall over.

I dont think paint has ever been able to open more than 1 iamge at a time, you can still select multiple images and click edit it opens them all in new windows.

Maybe you previously used windows imageing? the software kodak had an involvment in?

Just grab Paint shop pro 9, PSP 10/X isn't as good.

If you think that Paint is good, you will be amazed when you see Irfanview!

Personaly I'd recommend not doing that. If you're working with photo's there are pleanty of decent free programs out there.

I recommend The GIMP

Otherwise known as the Gnu Image Manipulation Program. In other words it's free. It's also a good alternative to paying loads for software and handles more file types than Paint.

you could try paint.net
