Many thanks;

I got sidetracked to the dereferencing when I got the wrong values for height and width from the subroutine. After scrapping that and going back to using the vars directly I noticed that I was still sending the default image to the sub. There was no way the sub could return the values I was looking for. All is now well. I also took your advice and altered the resizing to a percentage.

I would also like to say thank you here to bbfu and Mr. Muskrat for their help and advice.
