resize pictures

There was a Power Toy for XP that would let you quickly resize pictures with a right click. Has anyone seen that functionality in Vista? It literately saved me hours a week. It was an excellent add-on but I think it would be better suited as an actual feature of Vista. I saw that in one of the earlier builds that they had put it into the photo gallery features but it be better if it was also available along with rotate on the right click of pictures. Photo Gallery is very cumbersome compared to a right click, choose the size you want, tell it ok, and your done.

Thanks for the suggestion. The powertoy like feature you are referring to won't be incoperated into Vista. I can't say for certain at this time, but I suspect we rev the most handy of the powertoys for Vista shortly after RTM.

Thanks for the info. I was hoping for it to be included but I will keep a very close watch for it being added as a power toy. It helps me tremendously as an email administrator for my company as most of the emails that exceed allowed size are due to very large pictures being sent to us. We also use it maintain a very large photo database that our users can access over the internet.

Here's a useful workaround. When you email pictures, you have the option to resize them before sending. So from Explorer, right click on the image and chose "Send To->Mail Recipient." Choose the size you want. If this is your first time using mail, you'll be asked to provide email settings. If you won't be using email, you can just specify a few random characters in each field. A email will be generated that contains your resized image(s) as attachments. You can drag them from the email and do with them as you wish. Then close the email without sending.

Thanks for this workaround, I too use image resizer frequently.

The lack of a Powertoys Image Resizer has stopped me from completely porting all my programs over to VISTA. I really need an easy and fast resizer like the PowerToys Resizer. Now that VISTA has been RTM, any chance of getting an Image Resizer that will work with VISTA?

Thanks, Mike. This product does solve my problem- especially since it easily does batch files. But I do miss the ability to resize by simply using a right mouse click.

does anyone have a fix when the email option on picture gallery or explorer doesn't open a new email. It prompts me to resize and attach, but never opens the message.

I'm having this exact same problem. (I right-click, selct "Send to...Mail Recipient", select size, selct "Attach", and then no mail window opens up. Nothing happens.)
I am using Outlook 2007 with Windows Vista Home Premium Edition. Outlook is set as my default mail software with all associations for extensions and protocols.
I am desperate to determine why this is not working. Any help would be so appreciated. Thank you.

John,
Any word on a PowerToy for Vista? I'm even ok with it being an Ultimate Extra. I'm anxious because I just upgraded my wife to Vista and she hates the email-resize workaround. You have to admit it's pretty dumb to have the resize funcationality in Vista but not expose it seperately.

I´m having the exact same problem: I select the photos, click on "send email", select the appropiate size an BOOM. After "compresing" the photos in a split second in the temps, nothing ever happens...

Do you have a default email program set?
It works fine here, with Tbird.
