Generally it is not a very good idea to resize the partition especially if you have not used LVM.
what will happen is that if you delete the partition (which if not the last partition on the HD) hen u will find missing harddisk space!
made sense? no? if your prsent partition is of say 2GB and u resize it to 1 GB then there is a chance the remaining 1GB will become unusable!

I really don't think that will be the case here. I think he may want to resize an NTFS partition. My experience with qparted was limited but I am sure that if I resized a partition, I could use the remaining space to create a new partition.
