Hate to drag this back out here again, but I am finally getting around to doing this. In looking at downloading GIMP I get the impression that I have to download download software before I can download the photo editor. Does this make sense? Is this how others did this?
Actually, let me ask this question before I go thru this whole thing for nothing...I am trying to resize photos to fit my new dimensions. So, let's say I have a photo that is 2592x1944. I want to resize that to 830x320. Will it let me do that and retain the photo integrity? Or am I trying to do something impossible?
I have resized the photo (unsaved) to 800x600 but that's as far as I can go and that's way too tall. If I resize it using the height first it will be too narrow..

If you have windows XP or later you should not need the downloader downloader (LOL) you should be able to just download the exe file then run it to install it.

Sure it will do it, but you can't do it one shot because the proportions don't match. The first one is 4:3 and your custom 83:32. You'd have to scale it to 830 wide and then crop it to 320 tall. It can handle that no problem at all.
