Hello everyone. I don't know the first thing about computers or scanners but if some would could offer some help I would really appreciate it. I have an hp scanner/printer/ and copier all in one. I'm able to scan pictures on to my computer, but I can't figure out how to cange the image size or settings. You see I have a myspace page and I want my pictures to be the same size as everyone elses... but my pictures show up so tiny! How do you make the pictures bigger? I'm sorry... I don't know any of the terminology! I can't figure out how to do this for the life of me. I've been working on this problem for 2 hours now and I am very frustrated. If anyone understands what I am trying to say PLEASE help me!

Thanks so much :whistling:

The scanner may have an option to set the output / target size

You could also open the scanned image with irfanview, click image, resize / resample

During the install, check the options, avoid toolbars and check which images you need it to be the default for

The plug ins are useful
