@Heartless Thank you. I have downloaded an app but if its a pain I will try Gimp :) So many items in Dads storage that I could be asking many many more questions

Have you access to a computer or lap-top with Windows Paint on it? You can resize photos in Paint

When I want a picture to upload somewhere, I text it to my email address. Text pics tend to be fairly small and they're automatically in my email. I use GIMP but it's not really one or two clicks and done.

never said Gimp was super easy, but it is very useful.  Windows Paint is a bigger pain in the butt to me than Gimp is, lol
personally, I have an older copy of Photoshop that I bought years ago, and still use regularly.

sending pictures via text to email is not the best idea.. yeah, it might work, but you also loose quality and that is not a good thing

I upload pics from my phone to my dropbox account (free) then download on the pc... any cropping, resizing, etc gets done in photoshop

I´m using this image resizer by Brice Lambson since... forever:

super fast, super easy just by using the context menu (right click on picture....) in Windows

I am a real dummy with computers but put my pictures on imgur and then post them with no problem on any forum including this one. Just choose the photo, chose the size of thumbnail, click copy and it's ready to go. Anything more difficult and I couldn't post pictures. Imgur is free.

We appreciate people not posting 3rd party hosted links as many of them disappear due to changes in hosts' policies, host going out of business, and the person who posted the photos to a 3rd party host moves, deletes, or closes their account resulting in the photos disappearing and leaving a useless post.  There are many examples of that problem on this site.  Here are a couple for your edification!

or they end up with watermarks on them that make it hard to see the actual image, like photobucket did to people that didnt want to pay exorbitant fees a few years ago...
