Resizing photos.

[waynegohl]

morning all.

the photos we took whilst on holiday are all different sizes as they were taken on about 4 or 5 dfferent cameras so is the a programme i can use to resize them all at once or do i have to do them individually?

thanks.

If you use something like google picasa you can do a batch export that resizes everything according to what you want to do with them - iow print, email, upload to flickr etc.

Irfanview has an awesome batch resizing feature, should be able to do what you need.

I use Irfanview (batchmode) for that.

Please remember to back them up first, they will lose their quality.

This is why I recommend the export method which should leave the original untouched.

There is a photo resize powertoy for Win XP from Microsoft, it works like charm and becomes embedded n your Windows.
And it is free.

Pixresizer is the best I've used ever. Very simple to use.

I used to use that with xp, but it doesn't work in vista. VSO image resizer does though.

Just out of curiosity: why do you want to resize them?

Knowing Wayne as we do (Bless him) his 5 different cameras are probably all set at max quality and fineness for images, he took a million pics in the states, and every pic is 15Mb in size, and he only has an 40Gb HDD in his PC.
