Resizing pictures

[Kim]

I've got some pictures, which I took on my mobile, on my computer, and I need them for some Geography work. I've tried opening them on paint and printing them out that way, but they come out really small, and in the middle of the page. They're something like 116 x 130 in pixels, and they're not big enough for the A2 poster that I have to do. Can someone tell me how to resize them, and a program that I could do it on?

Well, looking at your signiture, it looks like you have PSP?
If you do, why not open them on that, and resize them that way. Either by going to edit>>resize, and then changing them to a certain size.
Or do it the way I prefer, which is to click on the dotty looking square tool, then using the corners to resize it.. if you get me.

Yeah, but I have version 8. My edit menu doesn't have a size option, and I don't know what the dotty square tool is. I've found a deform tool, but that just takes out bits of the picture.

Put them into Paint, and make them bigger on there. Then print screen it, paste it into Paint Shop Pro, crop the sides off and everything and print it out through that programme. It'll probably end up pixelised, but thats probably one of the only ways you'll be able to do it :D

I have a laptop, and I don't think they do screenshots. It's never done one when I've tried, anyway.

You can print screen on any laptop, it just might be appriviated in "PrtSc".

Otherwise, just use the select tool in paint, select the picture, copy and paste it into Paint Shop Pro, and print it from there. Experiement around and it should do it, no problem.
