Easily shrink pictures for uploading or sending

I guess that's why they call the app "Shrink Pic."


Basically, anytime you want to send a picture via email, upload one to a blog or share one via IM,Shrink Pic "automatically creates a temporary copy, resizes it and sends it instead."


For instance, the below picture's size on my hard drive is 450K.  When I insert the picture into the post (which uploads it into my WordPress storage), Shrink Pic resizes it to 52K, saving me a lot of space for more pictures!  I've only had Shrink Pic for a little while, but it seems to work great!



Shrink Pic doesn't modify the original, nor does it seem to change it when moving pictures from folder to folder, even if it's something like my online DropBox account.
