The easiest way I've found to resize in Photoshop is Help> Resize Image.

The Resize Wizard pops up and you have the option of Online or Print. Choose Online and then you can resize it in pixels. It holds a strict ratio over the dimensions so you don't squish your picture.

Yes I'm still alive, but the 60 plus hours a week and a down stairs neighbor (who leaves July 15 thank God) is killing my rowing. Best way to down size is go to the crop tool. Then in the crop bar, type in you desired width and height. Default units are inches, so if you want pixels, type in pix after you enter the desired dimension (E.G. 800 pix). If there is no specified resolution, Photoshop will resize dimensions either up or down depending ojn the size of the crop. Since we are doing this for the Internet, type in either 72 or 96 (your chice). Then crop to what ever you want. Aspect ratio will be maintained at the height width dimensions that you specify.

Good to hear from you, Brian! That guy is still there? I'd rather slip an eviction notice under his door than not row for another 20 or so days!

You don't need photoshop.

Just get IrfanView from download.com, which is a free program and very easy to use.

That guy must be very quiet, to complain about a rowing machine.

He's lucky to have you for a neighbor, instead of the boom boom guy who lives behind me.

Maybe we can arrange a trade.

She has a son who sleeps in the living room. Most neighbors I have prefer that I row at midnight because they do not hear the rower from their bedroom. I'm working so many hours that I get home to late to row effectively, except for tonight, I may get 30 minutes in. I can only row between 8 AM and 8 PM, until July 15. Whatever exercise time I get now has to be devoted to walking because of my upcoming Jimmy Fund Walk. 26.2 miles is a very long walk for an old (age 56) man like me. I'll try and fill everyone in this wekend on what has been going on if I don't have to work. Later.

Again, Brian, the team appreciates any meters you do, whether they're now or in October! It's too bad they don't have a Jimmy Fund *ROW* instead. I'm sure UNM would enjoy helping out with that, assuming it was permitted to be in separate pieces over a few days.

Tom and Brian:

I'll tackle 26.2 miles on my erg if I can figure out how to benefit the Jimmy Fund. Brian, is this benefit something you could offer the services of UNM members? Let us know how we might be able to help the cause.

This is something I just do. I did the Pan Mass Challenge (PMC) for ten years (1988 - 1997), a two day 194 mile bicycle ride for the Jimmy Fund. I shattered my left shoulder in four places in 1998 and had a prosthesis installed. I switched over to the Boston Marathon Jimmy Fund Walk in 1998. Even though I need total knee replacement in the left knee, I still do the walk. I lost 13 members of my family to cancer, including my mother and father. You know, the pain in my heart just never seems to go away. Not the fact that my parents died, but the fact I couldn't do anything to stop their pain. My parents' death were very painful, especially my father. I did the 1988 PMC in his honor. My father died a month after the 1988 Ride. I was so proud of what I did after I did the 1988 Ride I said to my father "Look what I have done for the Jimmy Fund!". My father said "What has the Jimmy Fund done for me?" I cried back then. When they were getting ready to plant my father into the ground I promised him I do something each year in memery of him and my mother. I raised over $59,000 since 1988 in their memory, and want to tell him when the day comes to meet him once again face to face, to be able to say "Because of you dad, your oldest son got involved and raised over $100,000 in yours' and mom's name to help someone beat cancer." God willing, I figure it will take another 15 to 20 years to achieve that goal.

I don't know if anyone wants to have a row-a-thon on September 17 as I begin my 19th journey sppeding the day no one else's family has to suffer like mine did. We can make it a UNM row-a-thon, with their own donation to the Jimmy Fund or any worthwhile cancer charity. I'll sponsor the team in that effort.

Brian and Rick:

Whatever it is for the 17th, I'm definitely in. I don't think any family anywhere hasn't been affected by this dreadful disease. Sorry for all of your losses. I'd like to do something for those we can help today, as well. I'm certain there will be other interest from our team!
