Someone asked me at the last meeting what tool I used to shrink my photo's. The tool is Fotosizer http://www.fotosizer.com/

Im sure there are better and worse programs... its just a program I found in all of a few minutes.

enjoy the tool whoever asked (terribly sorry about not remembering... my memory is usually shot 9x out of 10)

maybe... maybe not... but I am *nix frindly. the issue I end up having is the camera software is windows based. my games are windows based... oh, and my work computer is windows based. I might try and build a mythtv box... some day... eventually...

Gimp. It's from GNU so it's free to use. Works on Windows, Linux, MacOSx. Quite powerful for a free tool.

i believe the incredibly useful convert tool is part of the imagemagick suite which is open source and available for windows. worth checking out.

For shrinking photos in large quantities, I use a nice little piece of freeware -Multiple Image Resizer .NET

It's a great way to make a bunch of thumbnails out of hundreds of photos.

Haven't tried it; just passing it on.
