Ubunto requires 64 bit... This ole junker PC is 32 bit... I gotta gets me a real computer...

I think you've got that a bit wrong. I'm pretty certain that Ubuntu or any of the popular Linuxes will run on 32-bit, whereas quite often you'll need to explicitly select 64-bit if that's what you want.

In general, Linux can breathe live into old hardware which modern Windows would just bung up.

Anyway, thought I'd help. Think I'm done here.

You are right there. Ubunto will run on 64 bit--I think it is optimized for it, and at least quad processors as well, but it runs just fine on 32 bit single processor systems as well, as that is what my son is running on his AMD 32 bit system.

i have found you can use paint too.

go to image

then attributes and simply change the size

some one on page 1 said The Gimp was to underdeveloped and slow
that is a bunch of BS . As a builder of the svn nightly code.The program is VERY mature and the current stable is 2.4.6
and builds on all *nix systems with ./configure ( or.rpm)
and has a MS visual studio 2007 build for Windows xp and vista and a .dmg for mac.

I tried Gimp several times... It was a bug pain in thu azz to use... and it's smudge made waves.. and its cursors were bulky and thht.. and save is a pain... I'm running PhotoPlus8.. it works, and is enjoyable to use...

if all i wanna do is reduce size.

just use ImageMagick
example

Code: Select all

 ]$ convert 123.jpg -resize 334x500 123.png
convert [filename] -resixe [ length x width ] [ output name]
