Batch Image Resizing Programs?

[giambi77]

I just got back from Hawaii (), and I downloaded all of my image files fom my digital camera onto my computer. I could go through every picture in photoshop and alter the resolution and quality, but it would be rather time consuming. Does anyone know of any software (or hopefully freeware )avaliable that would speed this up?

Thanks to anyone who knows!

XP Powertoys has a utility that'll do just that(batch). No more, and no less. It gives you four choices of sizes, and asks if you want to make a copy, or overwrite the old one.
It might be tricky to find as MS pulled it, but it shouldn't be hard to find on an enthusiast site. It's ideal for what you need, I'd say.

edit-oops, I just assume everyone uses XP. Guess this won't work, if that's not what you use.

This is a feature built into Photoshop Elements (my current favorite photo editor....all the functionality of Photoshop with half the work ).

By the time you fire up photoshop, go thru the help files, and find a way to batch convert your pics, you could download the Paint Shop Pro trial version, install it, do the conversion, and eat dinner.

I use photoshop every day, but most of my work is done using Paint Shop Pro.

Photoshop sux.
