Just wondering if there was anything I Could use to do it in bulk, I've got a bunch of pictures that I want to put on photobucket but don't wanna go through them all one by one.

 

Nevermind, found a way to do it with Picasa2 ( http://picasa.google.com/ )

 

i made droplets in PS CS2 and just drag the pictures onto the icon and it automatically resizes and saves a copy for me in a designated folder.

 

MS image resizer powertoy works great also.

More info on this? Might be more convienant for more spontanious or picky stuff.

 

I batch an automated script on photoshop as well.

I think it's a no hassle way to work with photoshop to get what you want.

Pretty much you work like this... open a picture. If you look at the toolbars to your right you'll have one that has a "history" tab and a "action" tab. Select action and start a new action.

It'll start recording (what you do from here is what is going to be repeated X amount of times). So just resize to specs... throw in a auto adjust... border.. sig... whatever and then stop.

Go to File > Automate > Batch or create Droplet

Select the action you want to do (the one you just recorded) click the folder with all the pics you want to apply the action to. And run it.

I usually produce mass prints and thumbs at the same time with this tool. I also like it for adding borders and whatnot.

 

That is awesome, thank you, it will make things loads easier for me. I've started taking a LOT of pictures.

 

if you are on a mac, downsize by stunt software is great,you get a 20 day trial, then its $20.
