DoSize is a Web 2.0 application that will convert your files in 3 easy steps and then email the web images to your email account! All you need to do is follow the three steps:

1. Upload your file: select your files and hit ‘do upload’

2. Select the size for resizing: either 640 x480 at 72 dpi (internet resolution) or 4×6in or 5×7in or 8×10in (print resolution)

3. Input your email address and hit send!

The website is easy as pie to follow so have a go!

Most digital cameras have a setting that lets you capture web-ready images: its usually the smallest file size (resolution) called Basic, Web or Email or even 640×480. Check your manual!
