The best way would be to open the picture in a graphics program such as Paintshop pro 6.02. Here is a link to download it. http://www.oldversion.com/windows/paint-shop-pro-6-02  This program is old - 16 years old to be accurate however it is free and will allow you do resize your picture to what ever size you need. Contact me should you have problems with the program.  I have been using it since 2000.

Hi, Raptor,
Still no success in re-sizing your pic? We'd like to see your first intarsia.
God Bless! Spirithorse

     I have all my pictures set to open using "Paint" .  Paint is on most computers I think.  I then resize and crop photos there and then post.

You guys probably know it's a seashell.  My brother thought it was a waffle cone with chocolate ice cream, my Dad said it was obviously a cluster of grapes, and a friend thought it was a pastry surrounded by strawberries.  I had to explain that I took the pic while I was finishing it on my lazy Susan finishing wheel.  The other item I was lacquer spraying is a sanding block I made for a friend.  Blue tape is covering the cork.

I think your family is having a lend of you. Tell them it is a Conch Shell and we saw it straight away.

Nice work on the shell, and getting your head around re-sizing your picture.

My parents must have been psychic, as a child they were always telling me to 'Cut It Out'. So they knew a long time ago that I would become a scroll saw artist.
