Ok thanks i wasn’t sure if the wp would downsize it for me like formsite does.
I am using TWENTY TEN. Will paint be able to downsize or will i need another package or is there a site that downsizes?
What is the best dimensions for twenty ten?
the latest version of Twenty Ten should actually size your header image;
as far as I know, any image which you upload under dashboard – appearance – header, snd which is wider than the default 940px will be scaled in width, and you get a screen to crop the image’s height.
paint should be able to downsize an image (not very precise, as it only scales in percentages); but there are also free downloadable (such as GIMP – quite complex) or online (such as http://pixlr.com/editor/) image editors available.

Yes it scaled it down for me. No need for paint of gimp.
