Just changed to a Mac.

1) How do i save pics i find on the net into iphoto. On my PC i would just right click, save as and it would go into my pictures. Easy
2) What programme on the Mac do i use to resize pics. Again on my pc i would import them into Paint and change the size that way.

Thanks

1) right-click (or ctrl-click if you haven't got a two-button mouse) and select "Add Image to iPhoto Library" (about half way down the contextual menu) to put it into iPhoto or "Save Image to..." wherever you want (you can set a default location in Preferences:General

2) download GraphicConverter from www.lemkesoft.com/xd/public/content/index._cGlkPTE5Mw_.html

Edit photos in iPhoto using Crop tool.
Alternatively, do the same in Preview after selecting Select tool.
If you don't want to crop the image, then spend the few $$ on GC - it's superb value for money compared to Photoshop.
