I don't think you can since the proportions are wrong. The 640x480 is more square than the camera phone can take. I have in the past cropped them and resized them to this size (huge pain) or resized so the larger side is 640. The other dimension will not be 480, but it seems to have gone through. While I love my S5 for almost all shops, I am investing in a cheap digital camera that has a setting to take photos in this size as the time savings will quickly pay for it.
Go into your actual camera and click the settings in there. You may be able to do it in there. If you can't find it do a search on YouTube. They will have a tutorial some where.

Also there is an app in the store called "Simple Resize" I use it both on my Android and Ipad. You can take pics either within the app (no flash) or with your phone camera and then resize. It comes in handy for me alot.

Is this for Maritz?

If so, and I know from extensive experience, if you leave the pictures as they are (without adjusting the settings whatsoever) and upload them directly to their website, they'll be accepted. I did this many many times with my Samsung and now with my iPhone. I can't remember the last time I edited a photo (size or orientation).

YEMV, but I've never had a single issue smiling smiley
I usually just email them to myself for my own records. I transfer them to my laptop to put into a folder and then do my report. My email auto resizes to a small file anyway so I have never had a problem.

Download Pix Resizer. It is free. A simple tool to resize pictures...

Shopping Bama and parts of Georgia.
I'm still learning 24/7.
I have never resized pictures. JPEG does it for you. I use either a regular camera or a NEAT Scanner. I put the pics directly into my document file or on my desk top. Never had a problem.
They only want you to resize them so they download faster and do download as sometime large size will time out. I think they rezize them larger once received.

Shopping Western NY, Northeast and Central PA, and parts of Ohio and West Virginia. Have car will travel anywhere if the monies right.
Thanks for all of your responses. I recently found that if I open the pics (after I download them to the computer) with Paint, I can resize all of them very quickly to 640x480, then save.
what Tlt14 says.... I just post what I took. I might resize them a bit if they are huge, but otherwise, I'll shrink if they ask. Not sure where that 640x480 thing comes from. I can only guess that they come from back in the day where a lot of phones didn't even hit that resolution, nevermind 10-20X larger. And they never went back in to fix it.
In your menu, look for E-mail settings for your photos. That, i believe is the default for sending photos via E-mail.
Most companies I work with accept much larger photos than 640 x 480. Depending on how big they are, and how stable your internet connection is, may require you to shrink them.

Hands down the EASIEST program for resizing one or multiple photos at a time is Batch Picture Resizer 6.0. It is available from [www.rw-designer.com]. You download this very small photo onto your desktop. You select all photos (or the folder your photos are in), and drag them onto the program. It quickly resizes them all to whatever you desire. The name of the program is "PhotoResize400.exe" You rename the "400" to whatever you want - 640, 1080, etc. It makes the photos 400x or 640x or 1080x or whatever you selected. It keeps the aspect ratio, so whatever it was before, it keeps true.

Takes seconds to resize hundreds or thousands of photos if required!
There is a free program called, "free picture resizer" that will allow you to do one or a batch and you can also rename them at the same time. I like it because I can use the job ID and it numbers them 01, 02, etc. Makes it super easy to not get them confused with others if I'm doing the same type of shops. (I may be the only one that has to worry about that, lol).
There is only one company that I can think of that you have to mess around with changing formats and sizes of piks. Never had a problem with any other company but that one particular MSC has caused me many headaches and many Utube videos of how to figure it out. I am not techy at all and get panicky when the program is picky because I know it will not be an easy fix for me. I have spent hours trying to fix something that my son can do in 1 minute - so frustrating.
I've tried the program in my computer and the site that was suggested. Neither got the pixels exact. I then went back and manually edited the pics down to REAL CLOSE, and submitted them.
I have a somewhat related question. I bought a new phone (Samsung Galaxy Avant). My pictures are sideways when I submit to the MS platforms, but are right side up on the phone and when I email them to myself. Anyone have any insight? I can't seem to find anything online regarding this issue. TIA for suggestions/answers.
