  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Sure thing, are you hoping to resize them before you upload them? Or, do you want to upload them in a large size then resize them as you’d like in individual posts and pages?

  I have already imported them in to my media library. Can I resize them in WordPress?

  Excellent, you can re-size images when you insert them into posts/pages in the Image Block following this guide: https://en.support.wordpress.com/wordpress-editor/blocks/image-block/#resizing-images

  If you mean making the actual uploaded files smaller, the only way to do that is to delete them and re-upload smaller versions.
