I am trying to import images that are greatly larger then the page I am importing them.
There are several ways to reduce their size such as going into Quick Properties and changing the horizontal and vertical dimensions. However, this is tedious. Once I have the picture diminished I can then drag it to any size I want.

My request is to allow me to prset a size on the page and import into the size. I can then resize the image using my cursor without first having to go into properties, etc.

You can multiple select a group of images, and change the scale of all at once via the Quick Properties. Just in case you didn't know already....

Thanks for your quick response.

However, the images are not all the same size.

Changing the scale is a percentage change, not an absolute width/height change. So if you are importing several large images, changing the X & Y scale to 0.5 would yield a image reduction of 50% without altering the image's aspect ratio.

Remember that SiteSpinner is an HTML tool, not an imaging editor. You should try IrfanView. This is a free image editor that provides a batch processing function which allows you to scale many images in a single operation. It is a very handy program to have.
