Most photo editing programs besides Paint will allow you to scale according to actual sizes versus pixels. I'd recommend GIMP if you're looking for something for free.

Agreed, although Photoshop would do a better job on that.

Paint sucks 🙁 If you convert it to JPEG, your file quality goes down by a factor of 1 billion.

But GIMP is free! And Photoshop... isn't!

I well-round to 200x200 unless it demands 72dpi, simply because I can make 6 2x2 glossies at CVS for 12 cents by combining the 200x200.

try picnik! it's a free online photo editing program that is pretty user-friendly.

Urgh, I misinterpreted 2x2 as merely dimensions, so I just uploaded a large square digital photo. Why would they give the units in inches when most computer images are always in pixels? 200 x 200 would have made much more sense.

You'll have fun resizing for the many different secondary applications. Some want 200x200, another one I had wanted 125x125, and this was my favorite which ended up distorting the picture after resizing it: 190x160. I forget which secondary that was now, but they must enjoy stretched out images.

this app i'm looking at says the print size can be:
(9 x 13cm(3.5 x 5") , 10 x 15cm(4 x 6") and 13 x 18cm(5 x 7") ) and the Photo says which has just this one selection : passport and visa ( 2 x 2)"
which one do i use if i wanna send it to dental schools????
