How can I resize an image that’s 11.378 x 17.067 to an 8×10? The best I’ve been able to do is 8 x 12. TIA
BTW, I’m using Elements 2.0 & PS 7…

As far as I know you cannot resize it to 8×10 since the aspect ratio of the original (11.4×17.1) is not the same as the aspect ratio of 8×10. You would end up with some distortion if you just resized. Your best bet is to use the cropping tool and set it to 8 inches x 10 inches. This will capture whatever you want of the picture as an 8×10 and maintain aspect ratios. You will lose a little of the picture but not much.

The brutal answer is that you can’t.
They are different shapes.
The long side of the original picture is one and a half times the size of the short side. The 8 x 12 picture is the same shape, that is, it has the same proportions (1 > 1.5 ).
An 8 x 10, has the long side one and a quarter times the size of the short side (1 > 1.25 ).
If it must be 8 x 10, then you will need to Crop 2 inches off the image.
If you need the long side to be 10, and need to keep all of the image, then the short side will have to be 6.66.
Irritating isn’t it.
