I believe I promised Mopar and maybe someone else at the cruise and easy way to resize all those digital camera shots for easy posting to the internet.

I use a completely free program called Irfanview - not shareware, not 1 off payment, FREE.

http://www.irfanview.com/

When you have downloaded this - here is how it is done.

1. Open Irfanview and select batch conversion.
Open in new window


2. Select directory where the photos you want to make smaller are;
Open in new window


3. Click "Add all" to select all pictures for resizing
Open in new window


4. Click the Set Advanced Options button and pick the size of longest side you want. I pick 800, so I end up with a pic 800 x 600, which is pretty small (around 60kB).
Open in new window


5. Click on the Browse button near for Output directory in the main screen (you'll see this) and pic where you want the photos to go.
Open in new window


6. The program will resize all your pics and you are done!
Open in new window


Happy resizing! Any Q's post them here.

Thanks Mildman, it sounds like a good program.

I've added a link to this post in the Tech Section article "Photos - Frequently Asked Questions".
