...resizing is one of the many functions of most image processing software. I use FastStone for cropping, rotating and resizing, but whatever system you use should be capable......what are you currently using for cropping etc?

I se Gimp. Basic cropping can be done in the windows image viewer as well.

Windows Photo Gallery has an edit facility. It's a standard product that is installed as part of Windows.
