There should be a resize option In your software that came with the camera.
 But I think there is a better program To do this with, I would recommend "faststone resizer" . It is free and has a lot of options for resizing typical sizes. It will also add a prefix to your new smaller file, And it can also bulk rename files separately.

 In camera you always want to Photograph at the largest size you can. This way you will always have a file you can print large pictures from later.

I will start a "Tutorial" for resizing images in various programs this afternoon....

I resize by clicking with the right button and selecting "resize image". I have Ubuntu with nautilus-image-converter.
If you like the forum, or if you received a helpful tip here, why not donate a dollar or two to help us pay for its hosting?

Speak up now, because tomorrow there might be nobody left to hear you!

I have started a "Tutorial" for resizing images in various programs.

If anyone wants to make one, please make it ONE REPLY, that way, each reply is a separate program. With the Program Name in the Subject. you can't use "quick reply", you must use the proper "Reply" button to have a "Subject Line" show up.

I do it with Picasa.
1) Select all the pictures you want to resize.
2) Click on the button 'Export'
3) Choose your resolution and output quality
