Resizing a batch of images

[compuclean]

Alrighty There People!

I have about 70 images that I want to resize. They are all the same size, and I want to reduce them all to the same size, ie, all of them are 800x600, I want them all 400x300.

I've got Photoshop, is there a way I can do that in there? Or any other way - I don't want to do them individually!

Help, as always, much appreciated!

I know Fireworks has a batch processing capability, and so does InfanView which is free to download.

In Photoshop set up an Action, (see Photoshop Help>Automating tasks>actions).
Then go File>Automatic>Batch and run the action on the folder that has the pix you want resized in it, choosing an output folder.
A bit more complex than eg Irfan, but you can structure the action more finely to, for instance, match colour.

There's some software called Mihov Image Resizer that will do this.

Photoshop can do this easily - no need to d/l anything else.

Hi All

I know this one is sorted now...but...

there is a really handy Microsoft (yes, handy and MS in the same sentence lol) that can resize all files in a folder from a right click context menu item.

Get it here:

Waa i can't post URLS - but you geddit!

Lets you resize all selected files, make new copies or resize orig, etc etc. I take about 300 ebay images a week and just select em all, and bang, from 8 mpixel down to 640x480 in a flash
