Resizing a picture to post on the cricut message board

At cnet.com there is a free program download for PIXresizer this program is so easy to use. You can easily make your picture file size smaller so that they can be viewed on the cricut message board. I know personal I am impatient and don't always want to take the time to download so I can view a picture.
