Click on an image file, and File Menu --> Get Info (or command-I)

That will give you the pixel counts and file size.

I have not yet used any "app" to downsize pictures that I care for: For example, a digital photo that's 6000x4000 and 13 megabytes.

So, I have been opening the photos in Preview and taking a screenshot.

The screenshot dimensions are typically 600x900 pixels, and 800K (oops, that's > 675K ... I will crop tighter)

Naturally, those 13 megabyte files are real nice, but I can't be filling up friends' and family's mailboxes. The small ones work OK.

Trying to keep things simple. I need to spend more time taking photos and less time sorting and cropping.
