So Automater...

[Tigercat212]

Automater is pretty much a sequence of commands? Then, they are stored and you can use it anytime?

Basically, you can also save those commands as an app.

Basically speaking, Automator is a front-end for AppleScript that does pretty much what you said it does

so, like, is there a way to input a list of files (stored in a text file and return delimited) and have automator do a mass-conversion?

what type of conversion? i have a workflow set so that anything in folder x is converted to iPod format and moved to folder Y

photos to JPG

My problem is that the photos are all in different folders...

Try this...

-Get specified finder items (and make it point to a smart folder matching your image criteria)
-Change type of images (converts format)
