Tips & Warnings
To get a free account with flauntR, simply go to the flauntR website and select a feature such as “editR” to use. A registration/login box will pop up asking for your email address, desired user name and desired password. Fill it out and submit.
If you want to resize more than one photo, select and upload all of the photos at once. This will give you a queue in the reduced photos box. You may then resize them one at a time.
You can resize your photo by using the "Percentages" option in the resizing box. This changes the height and width numbers to 100 (percent). Use this option if you know the percentage of increase or decrease in size you need to make to your photo.
As indicated in the steps, before downloading your photo back onto your computer or disk, you must save every photo in one of your flauntR albums. Though your flauntR albums are private unless you choose otherwise, they are stored online where they may be hacked. You may wish to use software installed on your computer to resize private or otherwise personal photos.
