Quite early on I made a "Master Page" in my Canvas program for size detail and resolution. It has been tweaked and modded over the years to where it is on version 7 now. The page has a fixed border and if you have seen any of my posts the outline and top bar are always there. I import my photos, then stretch or shrink them to do and show what I want. Once the photo is what I want I change the resolution of the photo in the program to 320 pixels per inch. finish up with the details and remove the extra junk on that page. I then select the whole page and render it at 160 pixels per inch, export that as a *.JPG file. It really takes very little time and I will adjust the brightness and contrast but that is usually all that is needed. Simple pages take only a couple of minutes. Really complex pages with drawings and explanations can take a bit longer, but still not a lot of time. My Canvas files each start from a master that is copied to the Project folder and renamed. In the file is a master page with all the detail goodies that I use to start it.
If anyone has any suggestions for @Darkhorse on how to resize images please share here. We gotta get that guy posting images.

If he uploads them to Flikr he can upload 600 for free. Conveniently because its a free account, they automatically resize the pictures (paid accounts they dont) They then give him a BB code.
or
Assuming he has a windows computer
Just right click the thumbnail pic on his computer
Select open with paint
Click the resize button in paint to whatever size he wants and click edit top left and save as.......
Paint will give him a suggested file name to save and just add R to the end of it so you dont overnight the original picture.
Like all these things if someone showed him it would be easy. Trying to explain it is near impossible

@Darkhorse this is a good suggestion. Like I said in my message it's really a personal thing, there's 10 different ways to do things on a computer, it's whatever easiest for you that works.
Here's a youtube on how to use Irfanview to resize.

Here's the image you emailed me. Using the same method as in the video.
your image is 4080 pix wide. I set it to 1280*720 using the standard option.
Then I save it and
Sazzam. your image uploads.
Nice tank!
