    Thanks. This seemed to work but not as good as Resize. Hopefully the Resize site will come back.

    I have been using befunky.com as of late. Super easy to use and free!

    Have started using this: https://resizeimage.net/. Can recommend. Think I will continue using it even if resizeyourimage gets fixed.

    I'm honestly glad that RYI went down and forced me to use photo editing software instead, because once I got the hang of it, I found the process much faster and easier. Also, I can actually do some editing as well, like brightening the image up a little, which can make a big difference if your pictures always come out too dark.

    Just a general FYI, resizeyourimage is back up and running for the time being.

    Glad it's back, it suits this task better than I thought, when streamlining it's usage.

    I take the picture, then crop it to what I want it to look like in the Windows Photo app and save it.

    I open Paint and resize it using the pixels option to 150 x 300 pixels and save it.

    I go to https://hnet.com/compress-jpeg/ and upload the image and then click on Compress Now. The resultant download is the one I upload for beer images.

    That's close to what I do except I perform both of your first two steps in Paint. And sometimes the Kb of the resulting pic doesn't need to be compressed so the last step isn't necessary.

    The reason I like using the Photo app for step one is because it has a straightening feature which allows me to straighten the picture to a grid. Cheers!

    Yeah, I find that straightening is needed sometimes too. I have a different app for that if I feel like doing it.
