Resize pic for mag

[73novaguy]

Hey guys, just wondering how to resize some of my photos for sending them in to magazines. I don't know if all of the magazines use the same DPI or sizing, but I know Chevy Hi performance goes with 300dpi at 5x7. Anyone know how to resize them without having extra software or can I use my Kodak software or Microsoft? Or if none of these softwares have the option, could anyone resize them for me? Thanks!

You can google "online image resizing" and get a bunch of links to online utilities that will do it free.

Here is one.

DON'T DO IT!!!!!!! lol

We like the pics as big as we can get them.. sometimes I want to run a pic I get big but I can't because the darn things are too small.

But, if you have to then 300dpi is what every magazine needs and keep the image size at the MINIMUM 6-inches wide preferably 8-inches

Here is an easy one for windows xp. After you download just go to any pic that you have saved and right click and your done it will either resize original or you can make a duplicate

I am online now with image resizer and they want me to give them a size in px's. I assume pixels, but I don't know what size to resize it to. The final product needs to be a 5x7 at 300 dpi. Any help????

dpi is Dots (pixels) Per Inch, so 5x7 would be 1500x2100 (give or take, don't tweak the proportion between width and height)
