Can someone lead me in the right direction? I can't seem to figure out how to add photos to my contacts in PI5. I could not find any info in the help file. Pardon the novice ignorance.

First step, size your pics down to about 4 K.

Then you can rename to your contacts name Lastname, firstname (eg. Smith, John), then copy it to the WebIS\ContactPics folder in your Synchronized files folder on your desktop. It will attach itself to the proper contact automatically.

You could also just copy the file anywhere on your PPC and then find the file yourself after tapping on the picture in the contact edit screen, but that can result in having two copies of the file on the device. That's it!

Can you recommend a software app that is good at resizing?

If you are using WinXP, there is a power toy available here:
