Hi, gang,
I have a large number of "supersized" *.tif images that I need to resize into 3"x2" (over 200). I would hate doing it individually pic by pic.
Can anyone suggest a way of a "mass production", if any?

I use a program called Graphic Workshop. It will convert in bulk. As a matter of fact it will convert a mixture if extentions to a single one of your choice from from over 20 types. Do a search for a thirty day free trial.

Evev better is "irfanview" - It's free to use for as long as you like, and does batch coversion and rename - it's saved me hours of work.

Irfanview also does screen grabs.

If you want to get a thumbnail exactly as it is going to appear on screen, load the image up to fit the window, reduce the window to the appropriate size, and do a screen grab, then save in whatever format you need.

If you have Photoshop you can create an action resizing the pricture then automating the action on a folder of images. Once the action is done it can save them in a different folder.
