Wow... all those answers and no one mentioned 'convert' from the imagemagik 
package.


convert  -geometry  640x480  -quality  75   <anysize.jpg>   <new.jpg>

Although it is command line, convert will convert almost anything to anything 
else including  pdf files to ps files etc.   The options shown above are just 
two of *many* options available  to resize, rotate, change from jpg to png or 
reverse.

If you need a gui,  fine,  but  you should at least find out about convert.
