Please help! I have just got to a point to where I can take descent pictures, but it is with my phone with a nice quality. I don't know how I can change the size of my pictures. Instead of posting the pics neccessary to help grade my coin, I had to post like 9 pics of different parts of the coin like this:

I would be grateful for any help, or comments, that would help me get past this nutty "situation"... Thanks
Rest in Peace

This photo is slightly out of focus, which obscures details. If you use Photobucket for downloading your photos to here, you can scale them up or down (down would be better, of course) to fit. You may also want to try Photoshop (I use an old version of Photoshop Elements for Mac) for cropping and sizing. Should you decide to use a scanner instead of a cell phone camera (!), the scanner software will allow cropping and sizing, too.

I just right click the image, open with paint, click image. Choose the resize option,(I put 25 in each box), then hit enter. That way,

thank you very much, I know it's not the greatest option using a cell phone camera, but that's my limited option right now. I'm just a poor boy in Ohio...

I must say that's the best cell phone pic of a coin I've ever seen. You may be on to something there ...
