Photo Resize Tool

Concepts

If volunteer photos are scanned in at very high resolution, or they are brought in from a digital camera without first being reduced to a reasonable size, they can both take up a lot of disk space and slow VSys down. Use the Photo resize tool to reduce large photos to a more reasonable size while leaving others unchanged.

Steps in This Task

  1. From the VSys One main screen, click Photo resize tool on the Administrator tools panel.

  2. Select a maximum image size. Any image which is larger in either or both dimensions (horizontal or vertical) than the values entered here will be reduced in size. The default value is 600 x 800, which is our recommendation.
  3. If you want to check and fix images for people in specific groups or of specific types, specify the groups and/or people types.
  4. Click the Run button.
    The resizing process may take some time.
    When complete, VSys gives you an on-screen report showing the names of the people whose images it needed to update.
