Hello,

There was a photo editing/resizing program that was recommended to me by someone here at Bleeping Computer that could be downloaded for free. I had it on my old laptop that crashed. I want to use the program but can't remember the name of it anymore. Any recommendations?

Thanks!

No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try.

I found the program I was talking about. It's IrfanView. Now I have a question regarding the setup process. I've already downloaded the program, and I'm at the part where I'm asked, "Do you want to associate extensions with IrfanView (optional)?" Then there is a huge list of choices, and I'm supposed to check the boxes for the ones I want, but I have NO CLUE what, if any, I should check. Can you help me?

Thanks!

the associations can easily be changed later

I never let programs associate extensions if I can help it, that way I choose what program I want to use

There is a good one from Google called Picasa-- However I see you found your program. You may want to just check this out if you haven't already. Here is the link: (and yes, it is free!). :thumbsup:
