Re: How do I reduce files size of JPG in bulk

[John Inzer]

I guess you're running WinXP or you wouldn't be here...right?

OK, go to the following link and download and install:
ImageResizer.exe

http://tinyurl.com/36n

Then you can open any folder that contains images
and you will have an option to resize. Just right click
the selected image files and choose Resize Pictures.
You can select one image or a whole group.

The program will place the resized copies in the folder
with your originals.

BTW...when resizing if you go to...Advanced Button /
Custom...and enter 640 in each field...that will be a good
size for e-mail purposes.

John, you gave the right info as far as the ImageResizer

program is concerned, but I don't agree on a 640(KB) for
a "good" size for emailing. A high resolution photo
should be resized to 300 to 400KB for emailing,
especially in JPG or JPeG format. It is faster and can
be expanded with little loss of resolution or Aspect
Ratio, if necessary.

===================================
Who cares what you agree with???

I didn't say 640KB...what I said was "enter
640 in each field"...which will result in an image
with the correct aspect ratio and the longest
side will not be over 640 pixels. Apparently
you've never used the ImageResizer and have
no idea how it works.
