iPhoto question (resizing)

[AlecBGreen]

I looked all over iPhoto and throughout the help section but I cant find out out how to resize a picture. My original is ~2500 X 1900 pixels but I need to shrink it so the longest dimension is 800 pixels. All I see is a "crop" feature. Any ideas?

Thanks!

1. Try this

Open up your pic and then go to the menu at the top > share > export > file export > scale images no larger than and then type in your dimensions. Click export (after you select where you want them) and then okay. Hope that works.

3. How did you pic turn out?

Wish I could afford a new one, but my 2005 iBook is still trucking along just fine, as is my 1999 iMac. Go over to the Apple support site and sign up. Lots of great advice over there.
