Today’s high resolution digital cameras produce multi Megabyte photos. These are great for printing but cause a heavy burden when sending over the Internet. We all upload photos to blogs or social networks, email them to friends and family but unless we want to continually resize them appropriately for the screen and web most of us upload the original images and endure the painstaking wait and processing.

ShrinkPic relieves you of this task by automatically resizing the images in the background each time they’re sent over the web. The original image is never resized only the temporary copy that is to be sent. You have full control of the resize settings and the software comes in both x86 and x64 versions to account for 64 bit processors.
