If you use Microsoft Power Toys it has a right click feature built in so you can select all or one of your pics and resize to the desired size in one click.

Here is the link to the free download from Microsoft. http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=211477

I use a free download called shrinkpic, once opened it sits on your toolbar and automatically shrinks any pic you email or upload! Perfic!

Looks like one heck of a work bench!

Paco, what paint did you use on that bench? It almost has a textured look to it like Hammerite or something similar but that could just be the way the light is hitting the top rail of the bench becuase the bottom just looks like a machinery gray.

Hi mike,
I just used an industrial oil base primer and paint thinned a bit with miniral spirits. I shot it with a 15 year old HF HVLP.
Not sure why the photo looks grainy, but it's smooth. I like that color,it helps hide my paw prints.

Hi Mark,
The workbench holds four lower tool boxes with two stool sitting areas. It's a island style WB that divides the automotive bay and machine area. Stool pockets also have 2" receivers for jigs,vice etc.

Here's a photo of the workbench prior to disassembly for paint.
