Bat Guano
File :-(, x)
I use IrfanView to shrink down the really large images. It can also do batch renaming, among other things. Completely free.

This picture was 3000 pixels wide and took up 2.37 mb of memory. I shrunk it down to a more manageable 1800 pixels and saved 90% of the memory required and it still keeps good detail of the image (this also can be modified --I set my image detail at 85%). For image cropping, I still use Microsoft Paint, but I would like to find a better program than that.
Pic: US Navy 'Hangar One' at Moffett Field, Mountain View, California; housed the giant reconnaissance dirigible ZRS-5 USS Macon, from 1933 until its crash in a storm in 1935, now used as a NASA museum as it would be too expensive to demolish because it contains so much asbestos.
