I am not sure if this will work or not, but I know people that have done it in the past. I too have done this for other types of software. Adobe came out with their CS3 version. In doing this, they left a lot of people still stocking Photoshop 9 and even Photoshop 7. Sometimes you can contact the actual manufacturer and ask for an older version or you can search on the internet for people trying to liquidate the older versions "older versions sell for a fraction of the cost". Other than that, since I do use Photoshop, I am not aware of any other program that will let you resize the image and also have control over what resolution.

I did not comment on it last time, but my preference for webpages and blogs is to have it fixed width.

As far as your question regarding the forms, I am unable to help you with this due to most of my sites deal with e-commerce and do not use reservations or booking, so I will be of no help to you in this area.

Sorry I am not much help, but maybe you can find an older version in the price range that you are looking for.
