You've got a very nice (screen resolution) image of the young man.  What 
I don't understand is why you chose only screen resolution and then 
involved Irfanview for what FastStone is capable of on its own.

FastStone is perfectly capable of cropping the image in its native size 
which could be preserved for a print if desired.  After cropping you 
could resize the image in FastStone for a suitable size for the screen. 
  Or, if you really only desired a screen size image you could have 
resized and then cropped in FastStone.

Furthermore, if you did want to involve Irfanview for some more 
sophisticated work than FastStone is capable of you can specify its use 
as one of possibly several external editors (via Settings->Programs). 
Then right clicking the image will bring up a menu of the available 
editors.  Selecting one will pass the image to it.
