What do you recommend for reducing the sizes of images? I don't like the free app used by SCF, and am happy to purchase one, as long as it doesn't require a monthly service plan (EG Photoshop).

Also keep in mind that color acuity is not as important to me as image clarity due my color blindness. I want to be able to view crisp images AND be able to reduce image size for use on SCF.

irfanview is lightweight and easy. I'm sure there are others, no doubt better. It's been good to me for 20 years.

I agree. IrfanView does everything you need. The ImageEditor within IrfanView is not really usable (seems to be an early attempt at adding value). But Image manipulation options are all solid
