Easy way to change the size of Bootcamp partition?

So I installed Bootcamp on my MBP and it's all working fun. I recently decided I'd rather use OSX for my photography work and I didn't leave a lot of space on the OSX partition, so I would like to repartition the Bootcamp setup to shrink the Windows partition and increase OSX hard disk space.

Is there a simple way to achieve this? From Googling all I can find is people suggesting destroying the entire Windows partition and starting again, which is not ideal.
 
Try using Disk Util after booting from the Mac OS X Install DVD

He wants to shrink Windows and grow OS X. He can grow the OS X partition with Disk Utility sure... but shrinking Windows, not so much.

OP, in Disk Management on Windows Vista and 7 (definitely 7, not as sure about Vista) you can resize partition.

There are also free utilities and linux liveCD options. PartEd with an ubuntu LiveCD might be the best bet, but as always, back up your stuff first.
