One of the biggest issues is resizing pics so they will fit on the page correctly. I know attaching files imposes a strict limit on pixel dimensions and file size, but when pics are hotlinked, they are sometimes so large that they mess up the way the page is displayed.

I realize some of you have professional software (or professional employees) to do your image editing and/or a moderate to extensive knowledge of how digital images work in general, but I want this tutorial thread to be understandable even for a complete tech novice. At another forum I frequent, I asked for suggestions about a free, easy-to-use image resizer and got these suggestions:
If anyone would like to try these and give me feedback as to what they think is easy to use, I'd appreciate it.
