Bulk resizing for pics?

Xray · #1 (**permalink**) 3rd April 2009, 08:58 PM

Is there a way to resize several pics at once? I use Irfanview, but I have to scroll to each pic at a time and save it at a smaller size/resolution. Is there a way anybody does it to get all the pics resized under the very restrictive 500kb limit all at one time?

Depending on what operating system you have I know one for XP. If you have XP and google search power tools image resizer from microsoft a free download will pop up from Microsoft. Other than that one I don't have a clue for a free one. There are several that you can buy that will do it and any trial version ones tag the pics with huge tags.

I guess only God can help you now. ....I'll pray for you.

You always hear about these thing but no one ever thinks it's going to happen to them. Seems like everyone is getting it now days and I know it's only a matter of time before I get it to. I guess I'll just try to be grateful for the little bit of time I have left.

I'm using vista too, and irfanview. Open irfanview and click the b key, next the advance button when it opens check resize box and set the size you like. I've been using 2222. Click okay, next click on the files you want to resize and finally start batch. Here is a pic to help.

Hey, I've been looking for the same thing for the past few days, and I found a great solution. Check it out; Batch Picture Resize

It's really great. I needed all my images at 800px or less, but I didn't want to go through too much trouble. This is awesome - it doesn't take up any space AT ALL. The size of the image is controlled by the name of the file. Idk, check out the page; it'll give you better info than I can.

P.S. Rolled across this post when I was looking for something good. You're the sixth result under "bulk resizing". Just thought I'd help out
