I am definitely not the man when it comes to software* but these little apps are slicker than snot. Download it, install it, and then if you right click over a picture, you'll see "Resize Pictures" as one of the options. Click that and the default setting is 640x480. Click "ok" and it makes a downsized copy of the picture in the same directory thats perfect for posting. Toooo painless. The first link is for XP and the second works on Vista.

Microsoft has a ton of lil apps/PowerTools like that which I've had installed for many years.  They're very handy

If you upload your photos to photobucket.com, you can just link them here and they are resized automatically - and I think it saves Allen some server space (if that matters)
